16-11-2024We use kritter keepers of various sizes in our menagerie for very young New Caledonian geckos, or as temporary housing for quarantine or cleaning. This particular size (x-large) I purchased for a 14 gram Crestie so I dont have to lug its Exo Terra to our gecko-sitter while were on vacation. With some cork bark, fake plants, and an adjustable bamboo branch it should be very comfy in here for a few days! They arent the most durable, but theyre lightweight and inexpensive and seem to both hold humidity well and provide good ventilation. The clear plastic also makes for great viewing, but could make a tiny lizard nervous so we will cover three sides in paper to provide more security. I would not keep an adult in here for more than the time it takes to clean its normal tank though - a larger plastic storage tub would be more appropriate. And I dont think this would work at all for a reptile that needs supplemental heating and lighting.

> 3 dayWhen I received this critter keeper it had to long cracks. One down the side and the other down the corner and across the bottom. It still will work for what I need it for but if it was packaged better it probably would have prevented it from getting damaged.

> 3 dayOverall I LOVE these Kritter Keepers. Theyre cheap enough so that if you break or lose one, then its not a big deal. Theyre fairly sturdy, but since they are plastic you do have to be careful My ONLY gripe as you can see from the description above is that you cant choose the top colors. I understand these are cheap and they probably dont want to hold up the order line, BUT, I would love to have a choice in color in the future (hot pink is not really my thing).

> 3 dayI bought this tank for my goldfish. I will not recommend getting anything less than this size for a fish aquarium. This tank is a 6 gallon tank, and I only have 1 fish in it. I am able to fit in my small filter, 1 ornament and 2 plants and also my air pump tubes. Its great, my fish loves it. I think this is my final upgrade for my fishs home. I tried literally all sizes of the Lees Kritters except for the mini size. They are all excellent quality and very reasonably priced. I am a college student so its not realistic for me to have a glass tank in my dorm room. Also I do not want my tank to be super fragile as I will have to take it home over long breaks. This tank is great because it is ventilated at the top, it also has food holders so I put my two cans of fish food on the top and it doesnt slide off. I personally think this is a much better tank than its more expensive alternates, if you are looking to house 1 or 2 small fish or guppies/bettas, definitely get it. It also DOES not look cheap, so it has a nice presentation. Most important thing of all is the air holes on the hood, this is very vital to the health of your fish in promoting good aeration, especially if you do not have an air pump. Ventilated hoods are not common in the more expensive glass tanks with the black hoods. Thank you Lees Kritter!!

Greater than one weekThe product itself is great and what I expected, However, I ordered the product that indicated it may have less than 5% damage in order to save a few dollars and wouldnt mind it it was not perfect. The package came when it should, it was a great size but there was a large hole in the bottom of the kritter keeper. Not good for a hermit crab that has sand/bedding that needs to stay inside the tank. I will be reordering the new tank and not take a chance of the slightly damaged one (had the damage been up toward the top or perhaps scratched, it would have been fine). My recommendation-since you will not know where the damage is before ordering, only buy this product as new. PS- I noticed that the exact one I ordered from warehouse deals is no longer available.

17-11-2024Not pleased. There really is not much to go wrong with this product but the two essentials are both quality impaired. The covering top lid is way too tight fitting. The opening lid is equally to tight. I have two other habitats that are perfect.

> 3 dayWorks really well ! Bought this a few months would not use a heater. But the lid is extremely hard to get off it takes me about 10 minuets each time! I housed my 1 year old male betta he loves all the space he is use to a 3 gallon tank this is a 6 gallon... Would buy again... I did purchase another one later.
