The Maxi Medium Repti-home in oak is a high quality affordable vivarium for exotic pets that require a bit more heating. The 15mm wood boards help keep in heat making it easy to provide basking temperatures up to 90 Fahrenheit or higher. Numerous large vents and a pair of glass sliding doors allows for a lot of heat to be lost across the enclosure helping to create a pleasing temperature gradient from one side to the other.
Vivexotic vivariums are flat packed on arrival and can be constructed with a single screw driver. The majority of the enclosure is held using locking screws meaning that the unit can be taken apart and put back together. We estimate that each unit may take 15-20 minutes to build if it's your first time. The 'easy access' vents now supplied allow you to put your heating and lighting equipment through a vent without needing to remove a plug.
Once constructed we recommend a final finishing touch. This unit has sealed panels on most sides but once built we suggest running a pet friendly sealant along the joints to make sure that your vivarium lasts the life of your pet. To ensure that your pet cannot escape, Vivexotic have started including a simple locking mechanism in each of their vivariums. The front pane of glass has a hole on the right hand side: when this panel is on the left side and the back panel is on the right there will be a small gap to place the plastic plug provided. For additional security Vivexotic also offer a lock to match this unit (sold separately).
The Maxi Medium is recommended for corn snakes, king snakes, milk snakes, rat snakes, royal pythons and terrestrial geckos. The 86 x 49 x 56cm dimensions give a solid floor space for a range of small to medium species that need a great value living space with reliable heat retention.
The cabinet measures 86 x 49 x 64.5cm and uses the same wood effect panels and locking screw construction as the vivarium, creating a freestanding enclosure when the two are combined. It's built to perfectly match the Vivexotic Repti-Home Maxi range and sits effortlessly beneath the vivarium. It's available in the same three colour options, including this oak finish.
Both arrive flat packed and require only a single screwdriver to build. Vivexotic estimate around 15 to 20 minutes per unit for a first build, with locking screws holding the majority of the enclosure together so it can be taken apart and reassembled if needed. After assembly, running a pet-friendly sealant along the internal joints of the vivarium is recommended to protect the wood and help it last the life of your pet.
The front glass sliding doors include a plastic plug locking mechanism as standard, using a handy locking hole in the glass panel to hold everything firmly in place. For additional security, a Vivexotic sliding glass door lock is available separately. The toughened glass meets BS-EN-12150 kite marked standards, so the doors are built to a high specification throughout.
