Zilla Reptile Terrarium Floor Liners Green 20L/29/37 Gallon, 11.75 x 29.5

Trimming not needed for this it fits perfectly in my tank.. I bought 2 so that I can switch them out weekly to clean them.

These liners are amazing. We have two leopard geckos and I will never use anything else in their homes. There is never a bad smell, they are super easy to clean and last forever.

Ive used reptile carpets for a long time because of some health issues with my lizard awhile back. This carpet is as good as the others but a bit cheaper than some brands. They have many different sizes including a very large size which is perfect for my large terrarium. I had to cut it to make it fit in 3 pieces but it is very easy to cut using a box knife. This is very easy to apply to your terrarium and can last many months before having to buy a new one. I wash mine every couple of weeks once it gets really dirty but I always spot clean my lizards poop. After awhile of just rinsing it out you will notice it starting to smell and thats when you need to buy a new one. The only downside is if you left poop harden to the carpet its difficult to scoop off and sometimes you need to scrub it off when cleaning. If you stay on top of the poop this shouldnt be a problem. This is an easier bedding to use but it is also cleaner if youre worried about health issues for your reptile/amphibian. It does not allow for burrowing and sometimes my lizard will work his way under the carpet. Its personal preference to use a carpet like this but if you do then I recommend this brand.

This is an affordable alternative to substrate. I have 2 chameleons and this definitely improves the look of their enclosures. I spot clean daily and I try to do a thorough cleaning of my enclosures 1x a month. I empty the removable content, spray disinfectant, hose down and let air dry. Afterwards, it looks brand new. Depending on the level of mess, the spot cleaning isn’t always great. Cricket parts (if I don’t remember to check and remove any leftover after feeding) tend to get stuck on the carpet as well as paper towel bits from spot cleaning… I suppose you could avoid this by spot cleaning with a cloth instead and always remembering to remove any leftover crickets (which is the responsible thing to do in order to prevent any potential cricket bites while napping) Overall, it’s less messy than substrate and looks great after a fresh wash. I hope this was helpful.

When I bought this liner, I bought it a big bigger than what my bearded dragons house actually is. He has an awkward sized terrarium, so I figured if I bought one a bit big, I could use the extra to line something else, such as a sun house. I planned on taking the time to size and cut the liner to size. What I did not plan on was the liner being so tough! I understand that it is meant to be durable, but sheesh! Ahah, I think I spent more time trying to cut the liner to size than I did setting up his house! Once the liner was into the house, I put Dumbledore into it to judge his reaction. At first, he hated it. He kept glaring with me with a look that Ive noticed some beardie owners have come to know well when they mess with their beardies house. After a while though, he warmed up to the idea and began running through his house, every now and then stopping to lick/taste the liner or rub his beard against it. Now hes made peace with it There is a problem Ive discovered with it though. It was a love-hate thing for me at the time due to my beardie recovering from being treated very badly and being sick at the pet store. For the first time, he pooed without having to have a warm bath, massage, or anything else. However, I did not anticipate how hard it is to clean that off of this liner! After about ten minutes or so of scrubbing and spraying with water, I managed to get the vast majority of it off. You can barely tell it was there now, and you cant if you didnt know about it to begin with. I just wish I would of known before I bought it. I have to say though, this is a much better alternative than the repti-bark we were using. While Dumbledore loved it, he liked to eat it every now and then. D; All in all, I would definitely recommend this to someone else, so long as I mentioned the cleaning problem. ;)

Instead of using it as the floor of the tank I have it behind the tank as a background. Has a nice green grass/moss look to it.

Perfect fit 40 gallon long tank.

good item

Ordered for Gecko lizard. Too small for his cage. Had to add in extra.

I consider this a good product. By my count I have 9 of them on hand, some purchased through Amazon, others at a local pet store. Ive decided to address a few of the criticisms that Ive noticed in the reviews after reading. I own 1 black rat snake, and 2 leopard geckos in addition to some critters that this sort of substrate is not really suitable for (5 tarantulas, 2 scorpions and a baby crested gecko for which I will use the carpet when it gets big enough to be moved into a tank. I thought I might address some of the criticisms that I noticed in some of the reviews and give my thoughts on them. Note that I can only make observations in regard to the particular animals I have, so there could be other factors involved depending on the animal in question. 1) Sizing. Ive had pretty good fits, on a couple occasions they have been just a hair shy or a hair too large. Not a big deal, Ive been able to adjust in either case. Im guessing that that the cutting process might not be as accurate as it could be. I have a 55 gallon tank, a 20 gallon and a ten gallon in which I use these carpets and adjustments have been minimal, often simply compensated with creative positioning of the décor. So that has not been a deal-breaker for me. I have only long tanks, so I cant comment on the fits for the high styles. No stars deducted. 2) Ease of cleaning and odor. If you ask me, these things are MUCH easier to maintain than loose substrate like Eco-earth, aspen bedding, etc. There is the need to remove all décor, but I dont find that to add too much time to the process. After removal, I clean off any droppings, usually just by flicking the majority off with a small garden trowel I keep for that purpose. I then place the carpets in a bucket and fill with water and add a bit of bleach. (one should be careful not to add too much as it probably would shorten the life of the material. I leave it to soak for five minutes. the next step after removing the carpets from the mild bleach solution is to toss them in the washing machine in order to rinse and spin them. Sometimes I run a wash cycle as well. These things spin out nearly dry, I just run them through the dryer for ten or 15 minutes. They never have any odor whatsoever after going through the process. So for me, cleaning is no issue at all. I just work on other maintenance matters while the carpets are being cleaned. The reason I keep several is to spread the wear and tear out some. I have one or two that are still in good shape after a couple years of use. In the case of the leopard geckos, once they establish an area to defecate, they stick with that area, so I merely put down a spare swatch in that area as a sort of litter box. This lessens the need to clean their carpet considerably. My snake on the other hand pretty much goes wherever he happens to be when he feels the need so his needs more frequent maintenance. No stars deducted for this factor. 3) The possibility of teeth or nails getting caught in the material. This DOES happen. My snake once missed a strike at the mouse I offered (I feed frozen/thawed, not live) and REALLY got stuck. Now I take care not to drag the mouse along the flooring as I did in that case, but keep it elevated so the snake snaps it from out of the air. if he misses, no big deal, he just takes another shot at it after gathering his wits. Now, it has happened more than once with both of my leopard geckos. Ive never noticed them getting claws stuck on it, however. Now I simply use a dish. So I dont really have a big issue with this, but it is still a consideration, so a star gets dropped. I noticed somebody complaining that it was not suitable to keep tarantulas on. It is not, but that isnt a product flaw, so Im not even taken that complaint into consideration. There are a couple reasons it is not suitable for tarantulas, but I wont go into details to save time. Just dont use it for them, trust me. If you are, odds are pretty high that you need to study up on keeping them a bit. In conclusion, I personally feel that the carpets are useful for my purposes, and would recommend them to somebody keeping pets similar to mine. Oh, one last thing, some critters (like my snake) will crawl beneath it if they can, but thats what critters like him do. Its annoying but generally inconsequential unless you are using an under-tank heater, in which case you should probably secure the carpet over that area to avoid any possible thermal burns, some of those heaters can get pretty warm. But then, you really ought to be using a thermostat with them to avoid the risk of a thermal-burn anyway.
