Questions
would this be good for a corn snake?
- Hello! Hatchling Corn Snakes can be housed in a 10 gallon Zilla Terrarium but adults require a minimum of a 40BR Zilla Terrarium.
Helpful?
does the lightbulbs produce enough heat for a baby or an adult leopard gecko? I read that nothing less than a 75w lightbulb should be used.
- Hi! We appreciate you messaging to us. Generally a 50watt bulb would be sufficient in a small tank of that size, but it ultimately will depend on the ambient room temp and any air currents around the tank that might cool the tank off quicker. If the room is on the cooler size, upper 60’s to low 70’s (72 F), it may require a slightly larger bulb for the daytime heat. Night time is generally much cooler than the day. If you would like more details, please call our friendly Consumer Care team at 1-888-255-4527.

What are the wattages of the two bulbs in the starter kit and what is the maximum wattage rating if we wanted to replace the bulbs?
- Hello! Zilla 50 Watt Day White spot bulb and Zilla Night Black Heat 50 watt. Any additional questions, please contact us at 1-888-255-4527.

I bought this for my bearded dragon...Is this light it comes with the UVB light or the basking light??I know the other one is the black light for night time..Trying to see which other light I need to go buy him,He has to have 3 lights
- Hello, thanks for reaching out. This particular kit does not include UVB, it includes (2) incandescent bulbs. If you are using it for a beardie, you will need to get an additional fixture and UVB bulb. Enjoy!
Helpful?
Is it good for leopard geckos
- Hi there! The 10 gallon Zilla Critter cage can house hatchling leopard geckos. However, adult leopard geckos require a minimum of a 20L Zilla Critter Cage.
Helpful?
I already have the kit and no longer use it for my bearded dragon. Can I turn the tank (without lighting) into a full water habitat?
- No, Zilla tanks are not meant to hold water.
Helpful?
Would this be good for a bearded dragon
- no this will only last for a month or two for a dragon they grow fast and the lights do not go above 80 this is a terrible product in general and for a dragon that is a for sure no!
Helpful?
Is this a good starter for a rosy boam
- We suggest a larger kit for a rosy boa, like the Zilla 20L Premium Snake Kit. Here is a link to that product: https://bit.ly/2Ljjpwe

Would this be a good starter kit for a chameleon?

SO i am thinking about getting a leopard gecko, but i am not spending a ridiculous amount of money on a cage so i am using a plastic laundrey hamper that seems about maybe 10 gallons and i am setting up little hiddy spots and stuff but i dont know wha tbeedding i should use and how much light they need please hep :)
Hi there. So I am looking into getting a heat dome for my crested gecko. I know they don’t have to have a heat lam but I want him to have a UVB bulb Because it’s good for them. But I am not quite sure that type to get. Any suggestions? I was looking at petco’s tropical combo pack. He lives in a 10 g. With live plant. (I will upgrade when he is bigger) also do you know an age on him? I got him 3 months ago from petsmart. I could tell he was a male a week after I got him. (Pic from yesterday)
what size cage does an adult bearded dragon need? what substrate should I use? is bioactivity possible with bearded dragons?
I am setting up a new habitat for my 2 sibling gerbils. I want it to be as natural of a habitat as their ancestors in the wild live in. Which substrate would you recommend that would be as natural as they would receive in their desert environment?
Is this a good setup for Nighthawk, the first photo is the over all setup, the second one is the side view and the third is the water and calcium dishes. I use an under tank heater that stays at about 88 degrees Fahrenheit and the vines are fake. He has a warm hide and a cold hide with moss in it that’s i spray down every other day. The little box is another little hide that I can see him in. And the background is tile it paper rolls that were painted(they were left to dry for two weeks)
I have a fancy bearded dragon that is almost one now. When I first purchased him we got a 10 gal tank and he seems to be getting bigger. Do you think if I purchase a 40 gal tank he’ll be set for a year or two? Thank you.
I need to know what, in very specific terms, are the bare minimum requirements for housing a little red eared slider turtle we just won at a carnival who's about 3 inches long at most. We can't afford much, but my daughter & I are both attached already, I'm concerned and confused by what I'm reading online. I know we'll be needing a larger setup soon, but I'd like to start out with the smallest for now, & need specific light types, filters, & heaters necessary. (Live in CA)
Is my set up for my bearded dragon good? (See attachment)
Is it suitable to make a 1 feet marine tank. What fish should i keep in it?
Hi! We recently got a juvenile bearded dragon and I just want to make sure i’m doing enough for them. unsure of age or sex. Attached are photos of the dimensions of their enclosure, as well as the description of the bulb we are using. I leave a bowl of water in her enclosure as well as let her soak once a week (the water is conditioned with repti-safe). we feed her crickets daily and she always has a bowl of fresh veg available. (ALL food dusted with calcium/vitamin D3 supplement)
I have had this turtle for 3.5 years. He doesn't seem to be growing. He is in a 10 gallon tank. Is this to small and does his underneath side look healty?
I have a 20 gallon tank for my bearded dragon and I just need to know how many watts of UVB do I need
