Important information

Legal Disclaimer

As with all new reptile habitats, user should clean the interior with diluted working strength chlorhexidine before animal introduction. User is responsible for knowing their species' habitat-specific requirements. If habitats with water are planned, we suggest a fresh bead of aquatic sealant glue around the inside joints of the base tray for additional leak protection. We also strongly recommend a leak test of the base tray after terrarium assembly in a safe area. Heavy misting inside of terrarium will require aquatic sealant glue to the interior joints of the rear and side panels after assembly; misting should avoid the front doors. Setup should be leak tested in a safe area. Elaborate habitat installations that create significant pressure against the walls of the terrarium can affect squareness, integrity and waterproof base tray.

The Perfect Mansion For My Baby Florida Blue & Gold Thamnophis sirtalis

The Perfect Mansion For My Baby Florida Blue & Gold Thamnophis sirtalis
Update: 21-May-2021, @ 1830 Hours PDT:I changed my mind about getting an Australian Bearded Dragon.I decided to get two baby Florida Blue & Glod Thamnophis sirtalis (Common Garter Snake) They will arrive Thursday, 27-May-2021, from Melbourne, Florida.I finished the interior design. I can’t wait for them to arrive into their mansion. I hope they will be happy and feel at home./s/ Alfonso FaustinoHi, all.I am new to the reptile community; I will be getting two baby Thamnophis sirtalis (Blue and Gold Florida Common Garter Snakes); but, before I acquire them, I need to set up their mansion; so, they can leisure around and explore. They are very inquisitive animals.I wanted to get a mansion for them; hence, I purchased the Carolina Custom Cage Terrarium. I got the large one: 48” x 18” x 18”.I also purchased the low profile Reptile 34” TH5HO UVB + Double GU10 Basking Light Fixture.My present interior design consists of a burrow, made with 15 pounds of Excavator Clay.I have 2.5 inches of substrate consisting of organic materials: Orchid Bark, Potter Soil, Coconut Chips, Sphagnum Moss.So, here is my experience with my Carolina Custom Cages Terrarium Extra Long Easy Assembly:Ease Of Assembly: 5-stars: It took me about 10 minutes or so once I unpacked all the components of the terrarium;Sturdiness: 5-stars: Once I put on the top cover and screwed it down, all the glass panels locked down and created a sturdy and safe home for my soon-to-be two baby Thamnophis sirtalis, as well as being a safe decorative piece in my own home;Easy To Clean: TBD — I don’t have my two baby Thamnophis sirtalis; but, I’m sure the Carolina Enclosure will be easy; because, of the removable top screen and the sliding front glass panels;Intelligently Engineered And Designed: 5-stars: It is truly a wonderful experience when engineering and artistic design come together to create a product that is a functional and aesthetically pleasing to the human senses;Creature Comfort: TBD: I’m sure, once I purchase my two baby Thamnophis sirtalis, they will feel comfortable, safe, and happy with their mansion.Customer Service: 5-stars: About an hour or so after I received my Terrarium Extra Long Easy Assembly, Carolina Custom Cages sent me an email to make sure I was happy with my product and promised me they are available to me for any concerns I might have with the terrarium. I wrote back to let them know all is swell; and, they responded in an expedient manner.Well, I will update my review once I get my two baby Thamnophis sirtalis.I will heat up the mansion and study the temperature activities and make the appropriate adjustments. Once that is done, the mansion will be ready to accept my two baby Thamnophis sirtalis.Great job, Carolina Custom Cages — keep up the great work — you’re aces!Check 6!/s/ Alfonso Faustino

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for Older Juvinile and Adult Bearded Dragons
Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2018
It can be really hard to find the right cage for reptiles, but this cage was the absolute best option to upgrade my Bearded Dragon, Dante to when he outgrew his older cage. I truly wish I could give this cage more than 5 stars, it's fantastic. The assembly was super easy, nothing was broken, the sliding glass doors are very helpful along with the door lock, the screen on the top fits great and the mesh isn't too fine, it retains heat relatively well, there were little holes to the right of the screen's frame for lamps' cables mounted inside the cage, I mean I could go on for days. I waited 2 weeks for this cage to become available, and it was worth every day. I wouldn't recommend this cage for hatchling or baby Bearded Dragons because it's so big, but it's the perfect life-long cage when they get bigger and need the space. So, word of advice, if you want to upgrade your Bearded Dragon to a bigger cage with lots of room, but it doesn't take up too much space, GO WITH THIS CAGE! Don't settle for smaller 36' long cages, your beardie will be much happier with an extra foot of running space and extra height for climbing (but make sure you get the right bulbs that reach his basking point well, I found that a 150 bulb worked beautifully for a log that added 3 or 4')

5.0 out of 5 stars Long search, very satisfied.
Reviewed in the United States on April 11, 2023
Have been looking for awhile for an enclosure of this size for a decent price. After searching for a few months looking into different companies and options I settled on this.

1). I was a little nervous because I had not seen this brand in many online recommended lists, videos etc. However I can pleasantly say it was well worth taking that risk.

2). Other enclosures of this size on average were $200-$500 more expensive. I figured this might be a built quality issue. The enclosure came nicely in one well packed box. All the glass was well protected and everything was very tidy. It took me 10 minutes to set this up as they provide clear instructions, labels on each part, and solid connection points. After setting this up I can happily say this is the same if not better quality than the stuff you can find at pet stores. I would say those crazy $800-$1000 enclosures would still be a step up in terms of material.

Summary: I don’t write reviews I might have one other one posted. If you need a permanent home for your pal this is a great choice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love this terrarium
Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2019
We rescued a bearded dragon and quickly learned that the terrarium she came with was not large enough for her. I did some shopping around and this one was my favorite over and over so we bit the bullet and paid for it. The first one I received had a large crack in the base on the front portion of the glass. As we don't intend to have standing water in it we almost just kept it, but at the price, I really wanted a perfect one and the crack was on the front panel so no way to not see it. A replacement was sent with no hassle and we had a month to return the first one - making it very easy to not stress out our beardie. As I have built two of these now, I have some tips :) I read other people saying the instructions are bad, they aren't, they are just minimal and each piece of glass is not labeled. Keep in mind when you are building the terrarium that the front has the two tracks (the base, the top). I can also tell you that the largest pieces of glass are for the front sliding doors. Assembly is easy - I was able to do it alone in about 35 minutes. I highly recommend building it on whatever table/surface you plan on keeping it as it is big and a bit heavy. Also, there is a lot of styrofoam. A. Lot. I had to vacuum twice after each build to get each and every teeny tiny piece and wipe it out multiple times before putting our dragon in it. I recommend a can of condensed air while you build to assist with this. Also, the glass is crystal clear, as in my husband and I have both smacked the glass with our hands because we thought it was open LOL!! Overall we absolutely love this terrarium and despite the inconvenience of having to get another one because the first one was cracked, we would buy it again. :)
