Perfect!
Great tank and comes with lots of decorations and accessories. I keep a couple small frogs in it. Have bought twice now — customer service was great.

Excellent refund policy:
For a 1st time reptile owner I believe this Terrarium/kit is a worthwhile purchase. I give it a 5-Star rating, because it is an adequate size/kit. The kit came with everything pictured in the advertisements (except no bulb in the light housing). It also did not come with a pictured backing. Instead it came with a green colored foam board/block.However, IF the Terrarium enclosure had been undamaged. Then I believe that I would have been satisfied with the purchase. The refund process was excellent. If I hadn't already purchased the Gecko that morning then I would have waited to get a replacement one.Luckily a local pet shop had a Terrarium available that same day which we have our Gecko housed in now. We were able to use everything that came in the original kit. Which we really appreciated. For the price, customer service and convince of delivery I believe that this is a worthwhile buy. I hope my review helps in your decision making.

You can not beat this deal, seriously. Perfect for crested geckos!
Okay so first off, $109!?!? You simply can not beat this ANYWHERE. The terrarium alone is worth that much. The light it comes with unfortunately the bulb will be too hot for specifically Crested Geckos, but it is a good light and could work with numerous other reptiles and set ups. Then it comes with a hygrometer/ thermometer combo that works good. It came with a decent back-round and some substrate as well plus a feeding dish. So happy with everything! The terrarium is actually really good quality for the price point. I also actually prefer the single door now over a double door as well. I couldn’t be happier and I’ll for sure buy it again!

Good affordable option
The media could not be loaded. I bought this kit solely because it was affordable and would ship quickly. I made a quick decision to pick up a baby crested gecko locally and needed something affordable, quickly. I was hesitant on this one to begin with because of the shipping damage I saw in the comments. Thankfully it came in one piece. I'm going to list some pros and cons since it'll summarize my thoughts more simply.PROS*FAST shipping*Good size for small reptiles/amphibians*Comes with starter substrate, heat lamp, foam background, and seemingly accurate temperature/humidity gauge*Great latching mechanisms, solid constructionCONS*Base isn't flat, wobbles(could just be mine)*Excess silicon around glass edges*Included lamp attachment springs don't fit through the mesh in the lid, broke the mesh trying to attach the lamp. (However the springs hold the lamp very securely)*Background is just cheap foam, works temporarily, but may be a problem with prolonged moisture build-up.Overall, this terrarium will work great for my purposes. Though I probably won't be using the lamp very often when housing a crested gecko, it may be too hot. I will be adding some sphagnum moss to the included substrate to help keep the humidity up. It's nice that it's included, but not the best substrate for long-term. For the price, it's a great option if you're able to get it in 1 piece. I'm sure it would work fantastic for frogs and other amphibians too. I haven't been able to test the "water tight" base yet, but I'm sure with how much silicone there is, it'll hold water well (lol). If you read my whole review, thank you.

For small species, this is the best option available.
I have been an Exo Terra or Zoo Med fan for many, many years. I purchased a Zilla "bow front" terrarium at a local reptile expo in early 2020 and was really happy with it's quality and how most of the common gaps/openings in the other two brands were NOT an issue with the Zilla. I recently moved a day gecko out of that tank with the intent to move mourning geckos into it and the minimal amount of "gecko proofing" I had to do was so impressive.When I purchased my Agricolae pair, I knew I only wanted a Zilla for the same reasoning. The only gaps of concern were the side of the front door that has the hinge, but I slit a length of aquarium tubing and siliconed it on and it's fine. I also used a little packing tape on the opposite top corner just to be safe, as I ran out of silicone so couldn't run a bead inside to protect another really small gap. As soon as they grow a bit, we will not have any issues and can remove those safety measures. For the mourning geckos in the larger tank, they'll stay permanently.The tank itself is sturdy, well made and attractive. The extras it comes with are nice, but not necessary for every species. I like keeping extra supplies on hand, so definitely don't mind them. I was a bit nervous about using the halogen lamp included in such a small enclosure, especially looking at the temperatures it projects achieving with it's use. I ended up buying a nano LED fixture that I'll feel much safer using.My only complaint, is I wish the door were a bit longer. The vent area could be at least a couple inches lower, while still allowing for suitable amounts of substrate and providing a nicer/fuller view inside the habitat.

Super cute and functional terrarium
The media could not be loaded. I ended up with two brown anole lizards and needed housing for them. This terrarium is perfect. It’s easy to access, easy to clean, and looks really nice in my living room.
