My leopard geckos adore this cave! I bought two of them, one for each of my geckos. At first I put them in the cave so they could adjust, but just a few days after that they climbed in on their own.This cave makes a perfect moist hide for when my geckos shed. I put sphagnum moss on the bottom, and keep it damp. The geckos love their little nests! I frequently find them on there, regardless of whether or not they are shedding. I have picky geckos. I bought them adorable cactus hides that now sit unused. They are in this one every day!It works nicely over an under-tank warmer too. My male gecko, Apollo, is pretty long and hefty. He has plenty of room inside. The cave fits nicely in a 20 gallon tank.I can't recommend this hide enough. Look at how happy my geckos are!

My two young leopard geckos immediately crawled in and now spend most of their time inside together.I choose this rating because there is NOTHING wrong with this product, and there was nothing I did not like aside from it being a bit small, the leos will outgrow it quickly, but guess what? They also have it in bigger sizes!! I choose size small, but that it my fault and not the products!This is by far much nicer looking then the tupperware I was using before! It looks great inside the cage, works well, and the leos love it! The hole is on the top so if you put moss inside none will escape! Also the whole top half comes off so you can easily get inside.I defiantly recommend this to anyone with small reptiles, especially leopard geckos but would suggest maybe getting a medium size. The size small easily fits into my 10 gallon tank with plenty of space left over.

Hands-down the best hide for leopard geckos you can buy. You stuff the bottom with moisture-holding stuff and wet it. Easy to clean. Easy to remoisten: just lift up the top and spray or pour on water. The medium is PERFECT for adult leopard geckos. Even if you've got a baby, get the medium and they'll grow into it. My leopard gecko is about 8 inches in length and fairly hefty for a 6 month old and the medium is perfect for him with plenty of room. The only thing I'd recommend is to put a rock or something in front so they have a ramp. Leos, especially, are s***ty climbers and will appreciate a little help. I just found a rock from the woods that wasn't so tall that it'd block the entrance and washed/rinsed it thoroughly and put it in front of the entrance. Perfect. And my leo loves to hang out there. He has 2 other hides in his 20 gallon tank, but spends like 18 hours a day in this one.

We weren't sure about size selection, but our tank has limited floor space in a 12x12 tank (18" tall for climbing). The Zoo Med Reptile Shelter in small works well for the space we have and is definitely big enough for our juvenile crested gecko. I think he'll be able to use it for quite a while as he grows.We can probably just use it without the top if he gets to big to use it by entering the top through the hole. The lid stays on well when he's on it or inside. It's deep enough to line with a bit of moss and it is very easy to clean due to the two part construction.He's already making use of it for shedding from what we can see. It's sturdy, seems to handle low heat from the heating pad attached to the bottom of our tank just fine - so it works as a warm spot on the INSIDE of the shelter. The top never gets warm from the under tank heating pad.If you have more floor space in your tank or have more than one reptile, this is probably too small, but it works very well in limited space for a single gecko.

I bought this for my baby ball python. He really loves it. He fits in the size small with room to spare. I'll buy him the next size up when he's bigger. It's a terra cotta type feel to the cave, so it can be broken if dropped. My arrived with a small chip. It holds the heat from the under tank heater so it stays nice and cozy. My little boy loves to drape over the top of the cave too.

This is a must for Leopard Gecko owners. It is the perfect humid hide. I have had no problems with cracking, and it stays over the hot spot of the tub. The small size will be good up to 40 grams. I suggest purchasing the medium for 45 grams and up. It is heavy, so it is not moved around. You can use moist paper towels or moss for the substrate. It will hold the moisture longer than Tupperware hides.This is an update: These will not hold up to heat. If this is placed on the hot side of tank, they will crack and fall apart. Wish I had known this before I bought six ):
