Zilla Rock Cave for Reptiles & Amphibians

Providing the ideal environment for arboreal species such as geckos, frogs, and snakes can often be a challenge due to their need to be off the ground and the limited space in vertical terrariums. The Zilla Vertical Rock Cave is a solution designed specifically for such species, offering an elevated, natural-looking habitat.

Made from durable and lightweight polyurethane foam, this rock cave not only provides a safe resting place but also serves as an essential decorative element that blends seamlessly with your pet's habitat.

The Zilla Rock Cave uses strong suction cups to securely attach to the glass walls of your terrarium, allowing your pets to climb, hide, bask, or eat in elevated areas. Its rock-like design mimics natural cave structures, giving your pet a comfortable and instinctive space while maximizing the use of vertical space in their enclosure.

What are the Benefits of the Zilla Vertical Rock Cave?

  • Enhanced Vertical Space: Perfect for arboreal species, this décor maximizes space by sticking to vertical surfaces, creating an elevated retreat for your pet.
  • Natural Look and Feel: The realistic rock design adds a natural touch to your terrarium, mimicking the cave-like environment that reptiles and amphibians instinctively seek.
  • Durable and Lightweight: Made from sturdy polyurethane foam, it is easy to handle and install but tough enough to withstand the daily wear and tear of active pets.
  • Secure Suction Mounting: The included powerful suction cups ensure the décor stays securely attached to glass, even when your pet climbs or rests on it.

How to Use the Zilla Vertical Rock Cave?

  1. Placement: Clean the glass surface of your terrarium to ensure the suction cups adhere properly. Gently press the rock cave onto the desired location.
  2. Adjust as Needed: The suction system allows for easy repositioning without damaging the glass. Adjust the height to suit the climbing habits of your pet.

Can the Zilla Rock Cave be used for other pets besides reptiles?

How much weight can the suction cups hold?

The suction cups on the Zilla Rock Cave are designed to securely hold lightweight reptiles like geckos and small snakes. However, if your pet is heavier or very active, it’s essential to check the suction cups regularly to ensure they remain firmly attached to the glass.

Can the Zilla Rock Cave be used in both tropical and desert terrariums?

Does the Zilla Rock Cave provide thermal insulation?

Can the Zilla Rock Cave be submerged in water for aquatic setups?

How does the Zilla Rock Cave benefit arboreal species specifically?

For arboreal species like tree frogs and geckos, the Zilla Rock Cave provides an elevated retreat, helping them feel safe and secure off the ground. It maximizes vertical space in the terrarium, giving these animals more opportunities to climb, rest, and explore higher areas.

Will the color of the Zilla Rock Cave fade over time?

The Zilla Rock Cave is painted to blend with natural terrarium decor. However, with regular cleaning and exposure to UV light, some slight fading may occur over time. This is typical for most décor, and fading does not affect its function.

Can I place the Zilla Rock Cave in a bioactive terrarium?

Yes, the Zilla Rock Cave can be used in a bioactive terrarium. Its design allows for naturalistic setups, and it can coexist with live plants, beneficial insects, and microorganisms that thrive in a bioactive environment. Be sure to maintain both the cave and the terrarium to avoid mold growth.
