Thrive Vertical Crescent Terrarium Review

A first look at the Thrive Vertical Crescent Terrarium, a curved-front tank sold at PetSmart.

Video · 16 min watchWritten by Brian

This is my product review of the Thrive Vertical Crescent Terrarium, a 76 L (20 gallon) tank from Thrive's tropical reptile line. It is sold at PetSmart, in stores and on their website.

In the video I go through the terrarium and give my thoughts on it as a home for tropical reptiles such as crested geckos. The tank has a curved front, and the box lists crested geckos, chameleons, anoles and tree frogs among the animals it is meant for.

There is a follow-up

After this review I set the crescent up and moved my mourning gecko colony into it, and found a serious problem the next morning. If you are thinking about buying this tank, especially for small animals, read my follow-up, The Thrive Crescent Vertical Terrarium Is Dangerous, before you decide.
