REPTI ZOO Glass 50 Gallon Reptile Tank 36" X 18" X 18" Black-Tinted ECO Reptile Terrarium

I put it together myself in about a half hour at best, it was extremely easy and packaged very well not a chip anywhere. I really love the fact that the sides and back are black instead of clear, I think it's a great value for the price and decent quality, I would recommend.First edit: I still love it but now I have an important question and I'm not sure how to find out.... I'm wondering how much weight I can put on the bottom glass panel since it is raised on corner feet. I mean I have sand and heavy pieces of wood dragon Stone and other rocks I want to put in there but I'm really afraid about it being able to handle all that weight, it was a much thicker piece of glass than the sides I did notice that.Second question: it's not so important but I was wondering if the matte finish was supposed to go inside or out?I am very pleased to say that they responded right away and told me that it was 110 lb now I also had a question of what goes inside and out the shiny or the matte finish, well I put the matte finish in thinking it would be better for her not to see her reflection but apparently it's supposed to go out. 🤷So last edit: I have been happy with everything from product to customer service and I'm already looking into 160 gallon for when my little girl 🦎 gets bigger 👍

to big for ball pythons

This is the first front opening enclosure I have ever bought! I have decided to get back into the hobby and was hoping this would be a brand I could have dozens of as my collection starts to grow. No issues with delivery but after opening and reading the directions, I realized they were lacking detail and would make things a bit challenging with fitment. I find myself handy, crafty, etc... but even I had some troubles:-Directions are a little unclear, presumably from not being written by native English speaker; not an issue if you are versed in trying to interpret/decipher the interesting choice of words in some of the steps.-Fitment of glass between the plastic tracks is not totally snug despite the tracks and foam padding coupled with screws on the top and bottom via plastic brackets. I can see a slight bit of daylight in some spots so be aware this could cause issue depending on what you use for substrate.-Glass does not have anything other than "left glass" or "front glass" as far as labeling and does not tell you how to orient it while sliding it into the plastic frame tracks. I got a nice cut from the piece of glass I included as a screenshot. This was with the included gloves but they were making the glass pieces too slippery for me to keep ahold of. Probably partially my mistake, but be forewarned the glass will only cooperate fitment wise by sliding in from one particular direction (ymmv).-Another thing for some if you happen to see this: Although I can only assume, the matte side of the glass pieces for the sides and back are to face out with the glossy side facing in. Again, hopefully you find your assembly more intuitive than mine but I did also not see which side was correct until I had started to finish assembling.Overall, I am a little bummed at the price point for this enclosure and the size (24x12x12) to experience these issues. I am going to try my best to make it work after assembling with aquarium safe sealant and maybe some small cuts of foam weather stripping to reduce the rattle around the enclosure.—Edit: I was able to get the front glass to almost correctly fit within the plastic tracks but also suffer from the same rattling as others have mentioned.

The only reason I'm not giving it five is the assembly is a bit tricky, and instructions are unclear. Also, it came with an extra piece of glass that doesn't seem to fit anywhere, and I have no idea what it's for. There's a guard piece but this is like that but wider. Maybe a taller guard? No clue.Assembled the item is very nice, sturdy and a great size for our 5 foot long Texas Rat snake.

I absolutely love this brand of enclosures simply because it’s great quality and it’s great for tortoises. It’s roomy and stops glass surfing! The tinted glass is solid black and you can’t see through it from either end.It does its purpose and it’s well worth the hefty price. Bottom line reptiles don’t belong in fish tanks! The clear glass stresses them out because it confuses them and makes them think they can walk through it.

I have used several of the Reptizoo knockdown glass line of tanks in various sizes and generally really like them. They come packaged really well (I've never encountered broken glass), they're easy to assemble, they're sturdy, and they have nice quality lids that stand up to my cats inevitably sitting on top of them. I have learned that my snakes (2 corns, an MBK, and a BP) can slide the doors open, so I had to add childproof cabinet locks to them to prevent escapes, but in every other way, these tanks have served us well. This is my first time buying this large of a size, and I got two along with the separate stacking poles so my bearded dragon and ball python can be neighbors. The stacking poles worked well and it seems like a very sturdy setup even with the tanks being this large. The tinted glass looks really sleek and will save my beardie especially from extra stress by limiting her view out of 3 sides of the tank. I appreciate the slightly smaller size compared to the standard 4x2x2 because it is a better fit for my space while still being a significant upgrade for my pets.However, a major problem is that the lids for both tanks are bowed outward in the center. It isn't very visible to the eye, but it makes it so the sliding doors aren't held in the tracks and fall out easily. I haven't encountered this problem with the smaller tanks in the line, but I'm guessing these being so wide makes them more vulnerable to warping. I remedied the problem by putting free weights on top, so the doors no longer fall out, and I hope over time the bow will flatten out.

This is perfect when set up correctly it’s flawless for the price. I plan on adding more to my collection and building the rack!
