Review on ๐Ÿž๏ธ Zoo Med Labs Nano Breeze Aluminum Screen Cage: Optimal Enclosure for Small Pets by James Kapihe

Revainrating 4 out of 5

An excellent aviary for a praying mantis, BUT.

Great case that's perfect for my Malaysian praying mantis. Assembly wasn't that easy - the screws WON'T want to go in the holes. However, I pitch. So my husband provided the muscles. After we installed it I noticed a small hole in the net which was gross because although it was a small hole it was big enough for the needle crickets to escape. Repair duck tape. Relax. I set everything up with the substrate tray, substrate and plants, move the praying mantis from her jar to the new home, add the crickets and find that the crickets go right into the gap between the mesh and the substrate tray. where praying mantises cannot reach them and where they die. Good point Nick. I'll figure out how to fill the gap. I also really like the body. Would definitely use again for small critters. Just take care of this gap before adding the substrate and plants.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
