Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What size tank is the turtle basking platform suitable for?
A: The platform measures 30 x 23 x 5 cm (approx. 11.8 x 9.1 x 2 inches), making it a great fit for small to medium-sized aquariums and reptile tanks. We recommend a tank with at least 30 cm of interior wall space for the suction cups to attach properly.
Q: Can the turtle ramp be placed underwater as a hiding spot?
A: Yes! The platform is designed to be positioned either above or below the waterline. Below the surface, it creates a sheltered hiding area for shy reptiles; above the waterline, it serves as a basking and resting dock.
Q: Is the basking platform safe for frogs and other small reptiles?
A: Absolutely. The turtle basking platform is suitable for turtles, terrapins, frogs, hermit crabs, leopard geckos, and similar small reptiles or amphibians. The terraced slope ensures easy access for a variety of small pets.
Q: How do I attach the platform to my tank?
A: Simply press the included silicone suction cups firmly against the clean, dry interior glass of your tank. The suction cups provide a strong grip and are designed to hold securely even in wet environments. Use the included screws to attach the suction cups to the platform bracket.
