Full Life-Cycle Set - Arboreal Enclosure Bundle - x3 Enclosures Juvie - Adults

• One 10 x 10 x 15cm Arboreal Enclosure: The ideal starter for jumping spider slings and mantis nymphs. Compact and secure to ensure prey is easily found and moulting is safe.

 

• One 15 x 15 x 20cm Arboreal Enclosure: The perfect "grow-out" home for sub-adult arboreal tarantulas or larger mantis species. Provides the extra vertical volume needed for increased activity levels.

 

• One 18 x 18 x 25cm Arboreal Enclosure: A spacious "forever home" for adult jumping spiders and medium-sized arboreal invertebrates. Features the height required for elaborate naturalistic decor and climbing enrichment.

When housing sensitive species, the quality of the habitat directly impacts the health and longevity of the inhabitant. Our bespoke builds are engineered to solve the common failures of mass-produced, flat-pack alternatives.

 

This section compares our UK-handmade builds against mass-produced alternatives to help you make an informed choice for your livestock.

 

Features	EntoScapes Bespoke (Handmade)	Standard Flat pack (Mass produced)
Material Quality	3mm Clear Cast Perspex Acrylic. Strong. Lightweight. Clearer than glass (>90% light transmission).	2mm thin plastic or styrene. Bendy. Unreliable. Becomes cloudy and warped over time.
Ventilation	Precision Drilled, Cross Flow Ventilation. Variety of Options to suit your exact needs.	Pre-determined ventilation holes. Often insufficient.
Set-up time	Arrives assembled, cleaned and Polished (Ready to use straight out the box)	Requires time-consuming fiddly set up putting the flat pack panels together, sometimes including rubber bands
Cleaning	Seamless interior (Easy wipe)	Dirt and dust trapping joints. Absorbent rubber bands become mouldy and break. Absorbent, low quality acrylic is hard to clean satisfactorily.
Stackability	Reinforced, load-bearing design with non-slip rubber feet	Structural risks if stacked on top of each other. Often uneven surface on top.
Visibility	360° Seamless Clarity	Visible seams and unsightly connection points. Clouding and discolouration common due to low quality absorbent plastic and poor ventilation.
Door System	Clear Hinge & Secure Latch System. Polycarbonate to prevent un-secured edges from warping, ensuring maximum security and longevity	Friction-fit or simple tabs. Doors often fall inwards allowing critters to escape. Doors often warp over time
Durability	Majority of edges secured with strong, non-toxic acrylic-weld cement which prevents warping and fuses the panels together at an atomic level. Extremely strong, clear cast acrylic for high impact resistance. Non-porous and UV resistant.	Prone to bowing, warping and yellowing. Total structural failure likely from small a small impact.
Bioactive ready?	Yes - Deep-base water-tight seal	No - Will leak at every seam

• Material: All crystal clear polished cast acrylic for great 360° viewing. Polycarbonate door for reduced warping.

 

• Drilled Air Holes: Ventilation on sides and back, door and lid to provide perfect cross-ventilation. Also an option to swap for a large vent hole if you prefer a 3D printed vent or feeding apparatus.

 

• Access: Front-opening hinged door with a precision-fit acrylic latch to prevent escapes and provide easy access for maintenance and feeding.

 

• Substrate Barriers: Features a 6cm deep-base seal, allowing for bioactive layers, drainage, and moisture retention without the risk of leaks. Also a 2cm barrier above door to avoid web breakage and disturbance if keeping spiders.

 

• Extras: Non-slip silicone corner covers for safe and compact enclosures that can easily stack and still be aesthetically pleasing

• Ventilation: We offer two precision-drilled ventilation profiles. Our Standard Ventilation is 6 rows on the side and back and provides maximum airflow for larger invertebrates and critters that prefer high ventilation, while our Reduced Ventilation is specifically designed for critters that require less airflow and higher humidity. (add a couple extra to each number of rows for the 18x18x25)

 

• Hole Diameter: Choose between 1mm or 2mm ventilation holes based on your invertebrate's needs and personal preference.

 

• Bore Holes: We also offer the ability to drill one large hole on each face for fitting in a 3D printed vent or feeding apparatus if you do not want our precision drilled lines of ventilation.

 

• Door Direction: Choice of side opening (R-L) door or a downwards opening door, depending on what invert you are keeping and how likely their are to try and escape. This may also be useful depending on what type of feeder insect you need to drop into the enclosure as fruit flies can be trickier with a sideways opening door.

• Jumping Spiders (Phidippus sp.): Move your spider through each enclosure as it matures, ensuring it never feels overwhelmed by too much space or cramped as it reaches adult size.

 

• Mantids: Ideal for species such as the Ghost Mantis or Flower Mantis, providing the height and ventilation necessary for successful moults at every instar.

 

• Arboreal Tarantulas: A complete housing solution for species like the Antilles Pink Toe, taking them from juvenile stages to their final adult display.
