NEPTONION Vertical Glass Terrarium, 8 x 8 x 12 in, Escape-Proof with Feeding Hatch

NEPTONION’s 8 x 8 x 12 in (20.32 x 20.32 x 30.48 cm) escape-proof glass terrarium is a top-opening vertical vivarium designed for small arboreal reptiles such as green anoles.

• Locking latches resist pushing, bumps and curious pet interference to help keep animals inside.
• A dedicated feeding hatch lets you add food or adjust small items with less need to open the lid.
• The ventilated metal mesh top supports airflow and overhead heat or UVB placement.
• A raised bottom frame leaves room for a heat mat underneath while helping the tank sit level and secure.
• Interlocking-style stacking saves counter space; this model has a safety-tested top-load rating of 26.77 lb (12.14 kg).
• Ready to use without assembly; the tank is empty, with decor and accessories not included.

This vertical enclosure is made for small arboreal reptiles that use the height of their habitat, with a compact footprint for a countertop or similar setup. Full-view glass gives a clear view into the tank, while the top-opening design provides access from above. The enclosure arrives ready to use, so you can create a habitat setup to suit your animal without assembling the tank first.

What size is the terrarium, and which reptiles is it for?

It measures 8 x 8 x 12 in (20.32 x 20.32 x 30.48 cm) and is intended for small arboreal reptiles, including green anoles. Its taller-than-wide format suits a vertical vivarium setup, and the glass construction provides a full view of the habitat.

• Top-opening access suits a vertical enclosure layout.
• The tank is supplied empty so you can customize its interior.

How do feeding, airflow and heat support work?

Use the dedicated lid hatch to drop in food or make small adjustments without opening the full top. The metal mesh lid provides ventilation and accommodates overhead heat or UVB placement; the raised base leaves clearance for a heat mat underneath.

• The feeding hatch is built into the lid for quick access.
• Mesh ventilation and the raised base support different heat-placement options.

Can this terrarium be stacked, and what should I know about setup?

Its interlocking-style design allows multiple terrariums to be stacked, with the model rated for 26.77 lb (12.14 kg) of top load. Keep the total weight of any terrariums above it within that limit. Heavy hardscape, stones, wet substrate and water features add weight, so choose lightweight decor when stacking.

• No assembly is needed before use.
• Decor and accessories are not included.
• Account for the weight of the full upper setup, not just the empty terrarium.

NEPTONION’s vertical glass terrarium suits keepers setting up a visible habitat for a small arboreal reptile and looking to make use of vertical space. Its feeding hatch, ventilated mesh top, raised base and stackable construction provide practical options for access, airflow, heat placement and space planning. It is designed for small arboreal reptiles rather than larger animals or a low, wide habitat. For keepers whose animal fits the stated size and purpose, it is a ready-to-use vertical enclosure with a defined stacking limit.
