Heating & Lighting Recommendations (not included)

 

Dual Heat Fixture Setup 

Install two heat lamp fixtures positioned closely together on one side of the enclosure to create a broad, consistent basking zone—ideal for species that benefit from wider thermal gradients.

 

Safety Accessories 

(2) wire heat lamp safety baskets for interior-mounted fixtures to prevent accidental burns (recommended for snakes and other active climbers).

 

Heating Elements

    • Basking Bulbs (50W–100W): Select wattage based on species needs and ambient room temperature

    • Deep Heat Projectors: Provide non-light-emitting infrared warmth, ideal for nighttime use

    • Radiant Heat Panel (Optional): Mounts overhead for safe, even heat distribution—especially effective in PVC enclosures

   Lighting Setup  

  • Arcadia LumenIZE | ProT5 Smart UVB Kit with Bulb Recommended fixture length: 24"–36", covering ½ to ⅔ of the enclosure for optimal UVB exposure. Refer to lighting guide for species-specific UVB percentage recommendations.
  • Jungle Dawn LEDBAR Adds vibrant daylight spectrum and supports live plant growth (if applicable). Ideal for naturalistic or bioactive setups.

  • Thermostat & Probes Always pair heating elements with a thermostat controller and temperature probes to maintain safe, stable conditions throughout the enclosure.

 

Heat Safety Notice Prefer exterior-mounted lighting and heating? Select the Perforated Aluminum Screen Top—perfect for clamp-style fixtures, UVB, and LED lighting placed outside the enclosure. If housing snakes or other reptiles that may contact interior fixtures, we strongly recommend using wire safety baskets to prevent burns. Always pair heat bulbs with a thermostat controller to maintain safe temperatures and protect your animal.

Fantastic new home for my baby Gopher Snake

My gopher snake is growing so fast, his 40 gallon enclosure was not sufficient. Toad Ranch shipped very quickly (my order was in stock and ready to ship), and it arrived in immaculate condition.
Assembly was very straightforward, and I was able to do it entirely by myself in less than 45 min (including installing lighting and heating elements).

The end product is gorgeous, very sturdy and extremely well made, and my little buddy Elric is very pleased with his new place.

What a gorgeuos Gopher Snake!! Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review! We are thrilled that you are happy with your new Toad Ranch Enclosure!!

Couldn’t be happier!

Love my ready ship 4x2x2, maintains perfect heat and humidity! Easy to assemble.

The ball python I rescued arrived in a small enclosure and the folks at Toad Ranch shipped the 4x2x2 a day after I ordered.

I have 5 more enclosures/stands/hoods coming from Toad Ranch, I’m excited!

Great enclosure

This is a great enclosure. We needed something that would hold the temp and humidity steady and also look nice and this does not disappoint. It is currently in a big, open room and still manages to maintain parameters without any trouble. Very well made and looks lovely. We also needed it fast, so I chose the ready ship. It got here in 3 days and I was able to put it together by myself. The directions were easy and clear. Highly recommend!

Complete Your Showpiece! The beautiful variegated color pattern and texture are highly variable and unique to each piece creating a one-of-a-kind display that is sure to be the highlight of any room!

Exquisite Reptile Displays

With our interlocking dowel system just add a stand and hood to your reptile enclosure for a museum quality display in your living room!
