4 x 4 x 5 in Arboreal Acrylic Enclosure, 3 mm

Built tall for the tree-dwellers: pinktoes, Psalmopoeus, ornamentals and bark scorpions all live up high, so this box puts the room where they use it. A small vertical box for arboreal slings. The 5 inch height gives a sling room to web a retreat up high and still leaves floor for a water dish and a piece of cork. The ventilated locking lid keeps air moving and the lid shut, and the clear acrylic gives you a full view of the animal and everything it builds. At 4 x 4 x 5 inches it is sized for animals up to about 1.5 inches of leg span. Grab one with your next animal and it is ready to set up the day it lands.

Why keepers pick this one

• Height First: vertical layout, so an arboreal can web a retreat up top and still drop down to drink.
• Locking, Vented Lid: it latches shut and breathes, so you get airflow and peace of mind in the same lid.
• Crystal Clear: 3 mm clear acrylic: light, crystal clear and far harder to shatter than glass.
• Sized for Real Animals: matched to real species and sizes (list below), so you are not guessing.

Build it out

Pair it with a piece of Small Cork Bark stood on end for a web anchor, and a few drops of water on the web or a bottle-cap dish.

Looking after the acrylic

• Wipe with a soft damp cloth. Acrylic scratches more easily than glass.
• Skip abrasive pads and ammonia-based glass cleaners. Both haze the surface.
• Keep it out of direct sun. Heat build-up is a risk to the animal before it is a risk to the box.

Enclosure only; substrate, cork and water dish are sold separately. Sizes are outside dimensions, so measure your animal against the inside and leave a little room to grow.

Lifestyle

Arboreal: a climber. Height and vertical cork.
