🌟 Thinking About an Upgrade Before Christmas? 🌟

There’s no better time to treat your reptile (or yourself!) to a setup refresh, and we’ve got plenty of brilliant options available to take your enclosure to the next level.

Here are our top 6 vivarium upgrades that make a big difference:

🏡 1. Bigger Enclosures
One of the most impactful upgrades you can make. More space encourages more natural behaviour, creates opportunities for better thermoregulation, and a happier, healthier reptile overall. We can talk you through the right size and type for your species and the best ways to set it up.

💡 2. Arcadia LumenIZE Lighting
Control your reptile’s lighting straight from your phone! Smooth sunrise & sunset cycles, timers, dimming, and easy adjustments, all designed to more closely mimic natural daylight.

🌿 3. Plants & Natural / Naturalistic Decor
Add height, cover, and enrichment. Bioactive lovers - we’ve restocked plenty!

🏜️ 4. Larger Hides & Climbing Branches
Perfect for snakes, geckos, and dragons who benefit from more choice and security.

🔥 5. Updated Heating Options
Ceramic heat emitters, deep heat projectors, and reliable thermostats for safer, more stable temperatures.

🪵 6. Fresh Substrate
Whether you want arid, forest, or fully bioactive - the right choice of substrate can transform your enclosure instantly.

✨ Pop in and we’ll help you pick the perfect upgrades for your setup ✨

This little one is our last Ackie monitor available 🤩

Ackies love to climb, bask, dig and explore exactly like this. They’re busy, active and full of personality despite their compact size.

🐍 Corn Snakes 🐍

If you’re looking for a robust first snake, corn snakes are one of the best choices you can make 🤩

These beautiful, calm-tempered snakes are easy to handle, come in a huge range of colours and patterns, and have straightforward care requirements, making them ideal for beginners.

They eat well, and they’re generally very forgiving for new keepers still learning the ropes.

Whether you’re just starting your reptile journey or adding another member to your collection, our corn snakes are ready to meet you!

📍 Pop in and ask us to show you them in person - you’ll see why they’re such a popular choice 🐍

✨ Gargoyle & Crested Geckos Available ✨

If you’re looking for a friendly, easy-to-care-for reptile, our gargoyle gecko and crested geckos are brilliant choices for both beginners and experienced keepers. They’re gentle, handleable, and full of character.

One of our cresties is also what’s known as a frog-butt! 🐸🍑 This little one has previously dropped its tail, but it’s completely healed and perfectly healthy. It doesn’t affect them at all, and it can actually be a positive, as there’s no longer any risk of tail dropping in the future 🙌🏼

These geckos thrive in tall, well equipped enclosures with plenty of height to climb. They love a mix of branches, cork, and leafy plants to hide in. They’re ideal for either naturalistic or bioactive displays and do incredibly well in planted tanks.

They thrive in simple, arid / semi-arid setups, are mostly nocturnal, and enjoy a diet of small live insects.
