Description

Hobby Reptile Flat Drinking Bowl holds water about 2cm deep and no more, and that shallowness is the entire design. A hatchling turtle, a young tortoise or a small lizard can drink and wade in it with no risk of drowning - which is a real risk in a deeper dish.

Key Features

  • About 2cm Water Depth: safe for hatchlings and small species that cannot swim.
  • Three Sizes: small, medium and large. Pick above.
  • Rock Finish to blend into the enclosure.
  • Wide And Low: easy to walk into and, importantly, easy to walk out of.

Water In A Terrarium, Done Properly

  • Change it daily. A terrarium water dish is warm, often sat in, and frequently defecated in. In UAE temperatures it goes foul within a day, and dirty standing water is a straightforward route to a gut infection.
  • Scrub, do not just rinse. Biofilm forms a slick film you can feel. Hot water and a brush kept only for this job; rinse any disinfectant off completely.
  • Put it at the cool end. A water dish under the basking lamp evaporates fast, drives humidity up and can get hot enough to be unpleasant.
  • Many reptiles will not drink from a bowl at all. Chameleons and most arboreal geckos only recognise moving droplets, so they need misting or a dripper as well. A full, untouched bowl is not proof your animal is hydrated.
  • Watch the humidity. A large open water surface raises humidity considerably. In a desert setup that can matter - a smaller dish may be the right answer.

Good To Know

  • Pick the size above. Hobby list the small at around 8x6x1.5cm and the medium at 11x8x2cm; the large is wider again. Message us if you need the exact large dimensions.
  • Rinse it before first use.
  • Check it is level and stable. A tipped water dish soaks the substrate, and damp substrate in a warm enclosure grows mould and mites.
  • For a soaking dish, make sure your animal can get out unaided - a smooth-sided dish with no exit is a drowning risk for anything small.
  • Use dechlorinated water if your species is sensitive. Amphibians absorb through their skin and chlorine matters far more to them than to a reptile.
