The Exo Terra Wet Rock offers your reptiles, amphibians or invertebrates a secure place to hide and sleep, while the moist microclimate will support thermo-regulation, hydration, and aid the natural shedding process of reptiles. The unique hygroscopic properties of the ceramic material regulate the cave’s humidity and temperature in a natural way by absorbing and slowly releasing moisture from the water reservoir. Adequate air humidity levels create a healthy environment and help prevent respiratory infections.

Customers say
Customers have mixed opinions about the vivarium’s size, with some finding it great for geckos while others say it’s too small for baby leopard geckos. Moreover, the product’s sturdiness receives negative feedback, with several customers reporting it came shattered in pieces. Additionally, the humidity retention and quality aspects also get mixed reviews. However, customers like the water capacity, with one noting the top holds a good amount of water.

Leopard Gecko loves it
My Leopard gecko is loving this cave for the cold side of his tank. He typically sleeps in his main humid hide in the center of the tank but when he wants to cool down he goes to this cave on the cool side of the tank that has no lighting and relaxes in there until he needs to warm up again by the basking area. The bowl of water at the top seemed small at first but I suppose it just drops into the cave very very slowly, if it works then it works I suppose!

Fae Lizzy loves it.
My Blizzard Morph likes it. I was worried about the humidity levels. When we rescued him from the backroom of a big chain pet store he was blind. His molt had stuck to his eyes and his feet were deformed. I don’t know how he fits in it, but it’s adorable to peek in his tank and see his nose sticking out or the tip of his tail. He has not had a problem with molting in a while now. Thanks!!!!

leopard gecko likes it!
good for what it is! its a bit hard to lay moss inside and be able to mist it, but my gecko seems to like it! she uses it almost every day! the divot in the top is also very useful for keeping the humidity up! i fill the top with water and i don’t have to worry about her being able to shed! one thing i wish it had was the ability to lift the top up so you can check the inside better! however, if it works for my girl then it works for me!

The right size
First time I ordered I got the small one and I have an adult leopard gecko.It was too small so I send it back and got the largest one and it is absolutely perfect for her.The water part is deep enough where it doesn’t sit and get stale like one with a deeper water dish would.

Great!
My leopard gecko hardly leaves it and loves this hide. Holds moisture better than others have in the past. Received it broken in the mail, the seller made it right and is in the process of sending a new one. The customer service rep shakes was very polite and helped through the process.

Not for snakes!
Had a big scare with my snake. Got the biggest size ever for my small ball python but she didnât want to leave it ever. Days later we figured out she COULDN’T get out. We even saw other reviews about this thatâs why I got the bigger size⦠I had to almost break it open to get her out. Very scary⦠Iâd say it would be a great product for a lizard but def not a snakeâ¦

Leopard Gecko loves it
The L size is great for my adult leopard gecko Moca. There are no dangerous edges inside that she could get injured on. The top holds a good amount of water. I use this as a hot hide for her because the ceramic retains heat well. The biggest downside is that your animal can struggle to get to the water if not provided with a ramp.

Updated: My gecko has used it! And he has lots of room. Updated rating to 5 stars!Arrived quickly and undamaged.Put it in my gecko tank. Opening seems a bit small. And edges a bit sharp (although I did run my finger along it annd it seems fine.) My gecko hasn’t used it yet. If he doesn’t use it, I may have to look into alternatives.

Diese Keramikhöhle ist nicht nur praktisch, sondern auch optisch ein echter Hingucker. Die Verarbeitung ist hochwertig und das Design sehr natürlich â sie fügt sich harmonisch in jedes Terrarium oder sogar Aquarium ein.Durch das kleine Wasserreservoir oben entsteht im Inneren eine angenehme, gleichmäÃige Luftfeuchtigkeit â ideal für meinen Leopardgecko. Seitdem er sie hat, nutzt er sie täglich und fühlt sich sichtlich wohl darin.Eine perfekte Kombination aus Ãsthetik und Funktion â ich bin begeistert und mein Gecko auch!

El producto cumple su función como cueva húmeda. La uso para un gecko leopardo.El principal problema es que al ser una única pieza, si tu gecko entra y lo quieres sacar, no vas a poder pues se agarrará a las paredes con las garras. Y créeme le gustará tanto que no saldrá casi nunca.Como seguno inconveniente, tendrás que limpiarla muy a menudo pues el agua de la parte superior enseguida crea limo y con un gecko que no quiere salir, será complicado.
