I use one for my box turtles and one for a crested gecko. I also had a smaller one for my box turtles when i first got them. I dropped it trying to clean the enclouse and it broke. I dropped it from a good height onto a concrete floor. Nothing breakable has ever survived a fall to this floor. After it broke my box turtles got mad and stayed mad for 2 months until I got the xl one. My box turtles are about 3 years Old are finally out growing the xl cave at about 4 inches, but they have loved it. Since I bought it they've lived under it full time. It's home cave out of three hiding spots. The other I bought for my red eared slider. He ended up being too big at 4 inches for it. But my crested gecko fits it perfect. She's still small but it'll be the perfect thing for her to grow with and she will be able to keep it as an adult. The pics of my gecko are of her hospital tank when I brought her home. It's a 10 gallon. This is a good hide. It's sturdy and not too heavy and is a decent size for smaller reptiles. I did inspect both when i got them. Since i saw about the edges being sharp i was worried. The edges on both didnt seem bad. My only problem now is needing a bigger one for some very spoiled turtles. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great purchase *by A***E on June 10, 2025* My juvenile bearded dragons love this hide so much. It's a great size for the little guys. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My reptile loves it *by M***L on June 6, 2025* Great for reptile enclosures --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/302347679-reptology-shale-step-ledge-cave-hideout-aquarium-and-terrarium-decoration](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/302347679-reptology-shale-step-ledge-cave-hideout-aquarium-and-terrarium-decoration) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
