Review on Exo Terra Nano Tall Glass Natural Terrarium Kit for Reptiles and Amphibians - 8 x 8 x 12 inches (PT2601A1) by Sandy Martin

Beautiful Enclosure - Terrariums

FYI I'm serious about exotic animals and this is the best enclosure I've come across. I plan to invest in other sizes for my other pets when I can afford it.- The inhabitants of this nano are C. morosus (stick beetle) sticks. Loaded en masse as nymphs, they are now half-grown but quite large. It's hard to count them all under the foliage, but about ten sticks live here comfortably. Front access, top access and mesh are invaluable. Little did I know my sticks would spend 80% of their time on the roof so it gives me shudders to think how I would use a traditional top opening case without every time I open it, losing sticks. - The doors are very secure but easy to open. To my knowledge, no nymph (roughly 1.5 inches) could clear the background, although I can understand that this could be an issue; I filled the pads a little higher so no one can get down and behind, but mine was very well fitted and high quality. The size is honestly a bit larger than I expected (I assumed - wrongly - that it was the size of a small "Betta shell"). ", but square and fantastically larger, not so "nano" at all. - This is a great choice due to the verticality for tree creatures. I would recommend a different size/shape for all ground creatures. PS For all if Looking for how to care for chopsticks, watch Snake Discovery's chopstick care video, I followed their instructions exactly and there are many very happy chopsticks out there.
