I have 2 new flatpack acrylic tanks now in stock. Sizes are in the pics. They are front opening from the short side, so easier for squeezing more on a display shelf, but with easy access for feeding /watering. Perfect for terrestrial tarantulas or even velvet spiders or jumpers in the small one. Both have the twisty lock and pull down door, plus the mesh ventilation on top with added acrylic to keep in humidity. The best bit...the tops come pre-made as do the door catches! No faffing with tiny screws and sharp mesh! BONUS! Literally take off some protective film and stick your bands on and away you go. I literally built both in about 10 mins.

Open till 4pm today then back open Friday 11-4pm

I have 3 boxes of clean up crew isopods, there's a mixture of Porcellio pruinosus and Porcellio leavis, plus the possibility of a sneaky stowaway baby millipede from my beetle tank! 😂 They breed so well in there I have to do a 6 monthly clean out and purge the isopods. £15 for a box and there's bloody loads in there! 😂

Great for sharing amongst a load of bioactive tanks.

Back open Tuesday 11-4pm.

I have some new tanks in stock guys. This is one I set up today for a customer. It's a 20cm diameter cylinder that is 35cm tall. Doesn't it look gorgeous!

I also have nano sized glass tanks in stock again now, with front opening glass door. Finally! 😊

I've also had a little restock of mantis, so ghosts, peacocks, giant Asians, PNG blues all back in stock.

EDIT: THESE HAVE ALL FOUND NEW HOMES ❤️

I have 5 little boy jumpers who are looking for new little retirement homes for the time they have left. They all come in their own little cups and all seem ultra friendly. They were already named when I received them so photos show their name and species/locality. Rehoming fee of £12 each applies.
