REPT ZOO glass terrariums are the preferred choice of professional Herpetologists. They offer the front viewing for your animal; they are suitable for damp and humid conditions, are hygienic and easy to clean. Glass also maintains the correct heat gradient more safely and easily maintaining the correct heat gradient is critical to a reptile’s and amphibians’s well-being as they use external heat sources in their environment to regulate their body temperatures. In the wild these animals move around within their habitat(from sunlight to shade, or from above to burrows)to regulate their body temperature. If they get too cool, their metabolism slows(and in conditions that are too hot or too cool, they enter states of inactivity or hibernation). Maintaining the appropriate temperature is vital to bodily function such as digestion. It is important to provide the proper temperature conditions in order for the animal to grow and thrive.
