Buy Exo Terra Glass Turtle Terrarium Now
I received this product shattered. What I am extremely confused about if Amazon shipped the item. I arrived home to find this aquarium sitting on my front porch in its original packaging (i.e. as if I walked in the store and pulled it off the shelf). How can they expect it to make it to me in one piece if they didn't reinforced the bottoms and sides with bubble wrap. Needless to say I am happy that I received a refund because I would have needed a much larger tank. I would recommend this tank for anyone who has hatchlings, but anything bigger would be cruel to the turtle. I suspect it won't hold more than 10 gallons (comfortably) and that would be the recommended amount for a turtle with a 1 inch shell (hatchling). I received my refund and purchased a 40 gallon tank from a local pet shop.PLEASE remember your turtle requires 10 gallons of water for every inch of its shell. I.e. 4 inch shell requires a 40 gallon tank.
NOTE---Amazon was fantastic in their customer service in resolving my issue of receiving a broken item.I was a little afraid when this was first purchased because there was a few reviews of it arriving broken, but when I got it, it was in perfect condition (plus bigger than I thought) and might I add loaded with so much bubble wrap i practically filled my trash can with the stuff. I bought this for my 2 red eared sliders and unlike others, I love the lowered front edge, i think it makes it more inviting than a normal fish aquarium, plus its a nice square instead of the classic rectangle shape that the turtles could really only go side to side in. I do think however that its inappropriately called a terrarium when its made to hold water.I ordered this terrarium for a friend for her Birthday. It was very poorly packed and was shattered when the box was open. I contacted Amazon and they had another one shipped overnight. When the second one arrived, same thing, poorly packed and BROKEN ALSO. We sent it back and are going to a pet store to buy one. BLAH
