Description
3D-Printed 25 × 18 × 30 cm Terrarium
A compact 25 × 18 × 30 cm 3D-printed terrarium with sliding access panels and integrated ventilation, designed primarily for appropriately selected small invertebrates, plant propagation and creative terrarium displays.
Its compact footprint makes it particularly useful for smaller projects where a full-size glass vivarium would be unnecessarily large.
🪲 Suitable Uses
Depending on the requirements and size of the species being kept, potential uses include:
- Selected isopods
- Suitable small mantids
- Selected spiders and other small invertebrates
- Plant propagation
- Small orchids and tropical plants
- Planted terrarium and display projects
Please check the requirements of the particular species before purchasing. An enclosure being physically large enough to contain an animal does not necessarily mean that it provides sufficient usable space or appropriate environmental conditions for that species.
🌿 Compact Terrarium Design
At 25 × 18 × 30 cm, this enclosure provides a useful compact space for smaller invertebrate and planted setups.
The vertical dimension also allows branches, cork, planting and other furnishings to be incorporated where appropriate for the intended inhabitants.
💨 Integrated Ventilation
Built-in ventilation openings allow air exchange through the enclosure while retaining the clean appearance of the printed design.
Ventilation requirements vary considerably between species. Moisture levels and airflow will also be affected by the substrate, planting, room conditions, misting or watering and the amount of biological material within the enclosure.
Monitor the finished setup and adjust husbandry to suit the particular inhabitants rather than relying on the enclosure alone to regulate environmental conditions.
🚪 Sliding Access Panels
Sliding panels provide convenient access for feeding, maintenance, planting and routine observation while keeping the enclosure compact.
For particularly small inhabitants or juveniles, check all panel gaps, ventilation openings and other potential escape points before introducing animals.
🪴 Great for Planted Projects
The enclosure can also be used without animals for propagation and planted terrarium projects.
Its compact dimensions make it suitable for displaying selected tropical plants, mosses, small orchids and other species whose environmental requirements are compatible with the enclosure.
⚠️ Important Suitability Information
This enclosure is not marketed as a general permanent amphibian vivarium. Amphibians and other vertebrates have species-specific requirements for usable space, environmental gradients, ventilation, feeding and natural behaviour that should be considered when selecting an enclosure.
Similarly, not every invertebrate will be suitable simply because it is small. Always consider the adult size, activity, ventilation requirements, moisture requirements and potential escape ability of the particular species.
🐸 The Frogfather Approach
We believe enclosure choice should be based on the needs of the animal rather than simply whether an animal will physically fit inside it.
If you’re unsure whether this enclosure is appropriate for the species you intend to keep, please get in touch before ordering. We’re always happy to discuss the intended setup and help you decide whether it is suitable.
