30 x 10 x 10cm Small Maxi Terrestrial Critter Keeper Enclosure - Isopod, Beetles
The ultimate space-saver for the serious collector.
Handmade in the UK from our signature 3mm high-impact acrylic, the Small Maxi Critter Keeper is designed for those who need to maximize their shelf real estate. With its elongated 30cm footprint and slim 10cm profile, this enclosure allows you to line up multiple colonies side-by-side in narrow spaces where standard tanks simply won't fit. It offers the perfect balance of horizontal roaming space and crystal-clear visibility for smaller terrestrial species.
This is an elongated version of our 'Mini Critter Keeper' with double the length, ideal for keeping isopod colonies and smaller invertebrates that prefer the extra floor space.
NOTE: as these are made to order, we plan to get these produced and dispatched within 10-15 working days but there is only two of us running the entire business and sometimes we get swamped!
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.
