    • Great product, but my turtle is too big 😭
Pattern Name: Turtle Topper
Review Image by Lois Lois
This product was a cool addition to my tank, however, the ramp sits too high and my turtles shell was too big. When I took the side holds off, the ramp was too unstable to hold his weight for him to climb. The amount of water in the tank for him to use the ramp also made me feel uneasy, so I unfortunately have to return. However, it really is a cool and stable product if you have it all assembled! Also, I do recommend having clamp lights for this, not lights that sit on top as the screen isn’t huge and did not fit a double-basking light. This fit my 55gallon tank perfectly, and if your turtle is smaller this would work perfect. A full grown, 8 year old, yellow bellied slider was too big height wise to fit in the ramp area, but was fine in the basking area. ... show more

    • great buy..
Pattern Name: Turtle Topper
my turtle loves it, it's such an upgrade from the small green one i had. the one with the fake grass haha. this product is awesome, normans a huge fan, and i trust it 100 percent that he cant get hurt or get loose from his new basking area. it has quite a bit of space too so i plan to use this for a very long time, im even thinking about adding plants and rocks in there. norman (my turtle) even walks around it, the plastic half of it makes it so he's able to perch his little head up and see whatever he wants around him, so if youre expecting it to be closed in, it's not! i love that. it was really easy to set up, the instructions were clear. just be careful you dont accidentally break anything, it's pretty durable but i broke a small piece on accident. dont be clumsy like me haha. the only things i didnt like is this: -my turtle makes a bit of noise from his nails and his tummy from walking on it. but it's no problem, i would buy this product 1000x again! if you are expecting it to be silent, you might want to put a material on top that is quieter. -i wish the stairs were slanted differently because my turtle just slides down them like a slide and im not sure if he wants to go down that fast haha. AWESOME PRODUCT, 10/10!! IM SO HAPPY I FOUND THIS, and my turtle thanks you as well! ... show more

    • Awesome Basking Platform
Pattern Name: Turtle Topper
We adopted a 3 year old turtle that has an 8 inch shell. We tried 4 other basking platforms before this one. We did also purchase the extenders. I love that it sits above so she has more room in the tank for swimming. She loves the ledge that hangs below the platform, we often find her hanging out on it. This platform is stable and has plenty of room for her to turn around on. The only negative was that we did have to add rubber shelf liner to the ramp, she didn't like climbing it when it was just plastic. ... show more

    • great affordable way to setup a proper turtle tank!
Pattern Name: Turtle Topper
after becoming unexpected immediate new family to a pair of small turtles that had been living in a small plastic container all of their lives, we decided to make a Christmas gift for our son and daughters with a tank setup for their new pals. we purchased this little home and it was extremely easy to set up, which i love. it's sturdy and i'm not worried about the turtles escaping (who the girls named Stella and Harper by the way), even with the top completely off of the fish tank. we have it attached to a 30 gallon tank and what i love most is that it gives the turtles FULL access to the complete tank. when they outgrow this current setup, i'll purchase a 2nd Turtle Topper Basking Platform and put one on each end of a 125 gallon long tank for them. Cost! I have to be honest here. This is a bit of an investment in my opinion, at around $40, when our budget wasn't prepared for it at CHRISTMAS time of all times per year. But...I think it's worth it. I'll explain why. After at least 50 total hours of speed learning about turtles while frantically trying to put together a proper home for Harper and Stella, two things i've learned thus far are that proper turtle homes can be costly...indeed we did have to come out of pocket with $75 immediately, including this topper, and that's only because we had a majority of the other things turtles need for care, such as a tank and filter system, because as a hobbyist i also maintain aquariums. but if i didn't have those other things, i would have needed easily at least $350 to properly set up a home for the turtles. and two...turtles NEED a place to come out of their water fully, be warm, and get proper lighting designed especially for their healthy growth and development. unfortunately and oddly enough, it can be annoying and difficult to find a satisfying solution for turtles to bask properly in a tank setup. while not PERFECT, this topper really cut my stress for their home because most basking items on the market for aquatic turtles are flimsy and encounter functional problems. this topper to me, while a bit more costly, has already relieved my emergency turtle tank setup related stress. the turtles can climb out fine, and the top of the topper has small troughs in it that allow for clamp lights to attach to the topper to provide UVB lighting and heat to the turtles. the only thing that's annoying is that the ramp is made completely of plastic, and it's not very easy for turtles to climb up. we solved this problem by taking a clean large black sock (we ordered the black model so it matched) and pulled it over the ramp to make a grippy surface for the turtles. it works perfectly and now we find often find Stella basking on the ramp itself as we turn the basking light towards both the topper and the water, where the ramp is. While I do know this topper won't be large enough for really big turtles to be super comfortable (Stella and Harper are 4" and 4.5" in diameter and both fit fine in the topper. but i think after about 7.5" in diameter it gets pretty small for a turtle and the ramp may be too narrow), i do think that if space and or finance won't permit, this topper is still better than nothing at all. of all the options available, i think this option is by far the best. it allows turtles a completely out of the water (tank)option that's great to set up a tank with small turtles. it is super easy to set up and use and gives your brain relief from worrying about their safety so you can find out the other millions of things you need to know about turtles before getting them (like they are super messy eaters and realllllllly nosey and inquisitive). i believe this topper will allow me a great amount of time to become enough of a turtle expert to plan and execute a 150+ gallon solution for our turtles when the time comes. i definitely recommend this Topper! Stella and Harper agree! ... show more

Was a bit skeptical at first but it works like a charm. Easy to install and it definitely helped my turtle platform to stay where it supposed to be.
