Exo Terra Gecko Cave for Reptiles and Amphibians, Reptile Hideout, Medium, PT2865

Have a fat tail gecko who is about the size of a leopard gecko. This hide was finally big enough for him! I use moss inside to keep it moist and warm and he is happy. Unlike one I ordered previously (a different brand) that wasnt big enough, this one is a great size. This one also has no sharp edges and is easy to clean. Looks great in the tank!

I got this to use as a humid hide for my adult male leopard gecko. I was worried about whether he was too big for it but he spends all of his time in this hide now, and he has multiple bigger hides to choose from.

I use this for my adult male leopard geckos humid hide. I like that it opens, making it easy to spray down. My gecko spends a lot of time in this hide and seems to feel very secure in it. He also likes to climb on it, but the surface is slick so he slides a bit when he climbs it. It also looks good with my naturalistic-esque terrarium decorations. Overall, Im very happy with it.

Hello! I purchased the large and medium. Just to truly compare sizes. And the large is really the only one that could fit my geckos. I have a large male, and a smaller female. I thought the smaller female would be able to fit in the medium. But unfortunately that is not the case. I ended up purchasing Zoo Meds cave in a medium. And that one fit my female perfectly. Ive attached pictures of the sizes. And also a picture of the female one in the medium cave with out the top. She went into the cave, and then started circling inside without ever laying down. So I opened the top to let her out. I think it was too cramped for her to settle down.

Small: Use for hatchling leopard/fat-tailed geckos (they will outgrow these extremely fast, so many not be worth the investment). Medium: Use for juvie leopard/fat-tailed geckos or adults (there are some that are simply too big to squeeze into the hole). Large: Use for adult leopard/fat-tailed geckos (generally big enough to house 2 adults comfortably). These make wonderful dry or humid hides. Comes with top and bottom pieces. Ive received some that dont fit perfectly with each other. Amazon is pretty generous with accepting returns so you can order another which will hopefully have a more snug fit. Only issue I have with these are the tiny holes on the sides that may let in a small amount of light. Very easy to wash, this will be one of the best hides you can find for sell on Amazon!

Great so far but the large is really LARGE. We have a 10 month old Leo an he could easily fit in one half this size. It fits the tank OK so Im keeping it. Only had for a couple weeks so far but it seems much better made than the Zoo Med one, I went though 3 of those with the tops and bottoms cracking. Even towards the cool side of the tank they would eventually crack. * 2 Month update - Still holding up well, one minor annoyance is that there are two small holes in the bottom so if youre using it as a moist hide, some water will leak out if you add it directly to the substrate. I just filled the holes and all is well. Still sticking with my 5 star review.

When I initially bought this, my gecko refused to use it. I thought it was because she just didnt want to use it. It wasnt until I swapped the moss for damp paper towels when she used it almost all the time! I even got a perfect shed from my gecko, which is something that never happened before I swapped to paper. While its a bit pricey, Im at least satisfied with the natural look. If youre willing to put down the money for it, and maybe experiment with substrate, you might just come away with a great humid hide.

Easy to clean, not my leopard geckos normal cave. Use it specifically as a moist hide. I line the bottom with a moist paper towel and he uses it during shedding time for an easier shed.

If you have a leopard gecko. I say definitely buy the large size. I have a adult female leo and she is not a very huge female like some females can get and not big like the males can get and I think the large gives her enough room to be able to lay out however she wants. I kept debating between medium and large and went with my gut on large. And glad I did bc now I feel the medium would have been a bit cramped. Even though she may have still been fine with it. Also I have a 30 inch long tank. 12 inches wide. 18 high. And the rock dont seem to take up too much room. Seems to be a good ratio between all 3 of her hides compared to size tank. I added the pictures hoping they would help out since it wont too many by others really giving you a good idea of lizard to rock size ratio and tank to rock size ratio. So I hope they help!

He loves it! I use it as a moist hide with some paper towels to hold moisture. Just check daily to keep them moist and replace them weekly. Easy to clean with smooth surfaces inside and fits great in my 20-long. I place it about halfway onto the warmer side so it stays about 85 inside. He loves to just hang out in his cave with his head sticking out so he can see whats happening. He tries to climb it but its smooth and hes a lousy climber. No sharp edges or weird smell. I debated the large or medium, but the large is the perfect size for my guy.
