The Exo Terra 18X18X24 glass terrarium is a favorite in tropical habitats. This can be used to house everything from our tree frogs, crested geckos, toads, and other critters. These versatile enclosures are suitable for various types of set-ups, including paludariums, tropicals, either artificial or naturalistic.
Their greatest advantage is the front-opening doors. These allow for easy and safe feeding and care of the creatures inside.
Its elevated waterproof base allows the placement of bioactive substrates that facilitate moisture retention, a vital factor in tropical habitats.
Its structure has solid glass walls and a base capable of maintaining humidity above 80%.
The foam background has been designed to mimic natural rocks and is useful when laying out the design of your new terrarium. Whether you choose to use live plants, artificial plants, flexible vines, or wooden pieces, the foam allows for easy fitting of accessories. Just use wire, sticks, netting cups, etc. to attach items to the foam backdrop. The cavities for wires, combined with the lockable inlets at the top of the screen, leave plenty of room for any wires or tubes needed in the set-up.

Exo Terra Terrarium 18x18x24 features
One of the biggest advantages is the double front opening, except for the smaller 8-inch tanks that have only one front door. The front doors allow us to care for and feed our amphibians or reptiles inside safely and easily. There is no need to remove any accessories, as with top-opening tanks, or create a barrier to prevent animals from escaping, as with a single front-opening door.
Exo Terra terrariums come in a wide variety of sizes to suit many reptiles and amphibians. In the particular case of the Exo Terra Terrarium 18x18x24, it is designed to meet the needs of jungle reptiles or amphibians. The top of the metal screen allows for easy attachment of infrared or UVB lighting. But if you plan to raise a pet that needs more than 80% humidity, you may have to replace the screen with a solid glass cover. Another method will be to install a misting system.
The foam bottom is created to replicate the rocks and is useful when it comes to decorating your terrarium. Whether you choose to use live plants, artificial plants, flexible vines, or pieces of wood, the foam makes it easy to attach the accessories. Simply use wire, sticks, skewers, netting cups, etc. to attach the items to the foam bottom. The cable cavity, combined with the lockable inlets at the top of the screen, allows plenty of space for the cables or pipes needed in your installation.
