Is this ok for an anole in a 12 x 12 x 18 in Eco terrarium tank?

I don't know how much heat an anole requires but I have these on 2 of my tanks that are 4 feet long and almost 2 feet tall bc the light and heat from this bulb is very powerful & hot. The bulb itself is also very large and require a certain fixture with it. This makes my huge tanks over 100 degrees usually

a mercury bulb with UVA & UVB together makes this bulb one of the best on the market. as long as you have it meshed off where they cannot touch it, should be fine. the mercury bulbs will get very hot.

I wouldn't use it, it would get to hot. Your better off using a 75w heat bulb or a low wattage halogen spot flood bulb (from home depot).

Yes, as long as that is the only heat source. Make sure to have a thermometer in the tank too.

I use mine in a 70 gallon turtle tank with a turtle box on top. You should be good, but you will probably have to get some aquarium silicone and silicone the intake parts together. Otherwise your turtle is going to claw at it and pull them apart.

Not a problem... I'm using mine in a 6 gallon acrylic tank and I'm very happy with it. Keeps the tank at 75 in a 60 degree room through the winter. I would recommend this heater you wont be sorry.

Yes, definitely! My crested geckos fit in there and have more than enough room. Leo's or panther geckos should fit in there with no issues with enough space. These cages are taller than they are wide but since geckos tend to be climbers it's not really an issue. Hopefully this helps you!

The big one is actually quite large. I put one on my 12x12x32 terrarium. I have dart frogs in it and with a thermostat, it can maintain their temp. It is meant to create a hot spot. It has been a while since I stuck it on , but it was as far as I remember, it was not quite as wide, and about 1/3 the length. Zoo med .com will have exact specs.

no you would have to modify with support.my tank is 12 an 1/2 inches wide,an about 36 long,so it fit nicly on one end an i modifyed a lid to cover the other end.it works so well for my guys,it would be worth it to figure out if you could make a board to fit across the tank to support it.it's light wgt,you could get a peice off plexi glass cut to fit at your local hardware store,just remember to measure to allow for the exit.hope this helps.also it took a wek for them to get use to it an climb up ,then a nother week for them to not be skittish when the were basking,now the love it.

I have it in a 30 gal classic rectangular tank and all my reef inhabitants seems to be happy with it. It is installed inside of the tank and submerges about 90%. It might look big in 12 gal, as it probably occupies about a 1/2 gal of aquarium space.

I am not sure how much light you need. I am using mine in a 4'x2'x2' for my panther chameleon but I am only about 12inches away. I think even though your tank is smaller since you have a bigger distance you would be okay. I love this light and do recommend it.

Hello,I hope it`s not too late, to say that this, would absolutely not work as a turtle set-up... especially for red eared sliders. These guys get pretty massive relatively quick. Depending on its gender, in the first two years of its life... it could reach 3-6 inches long. Generally the rule of thumb for turtles is 10 gallons for every inch of turtle.I'm sorry if this bumbed you out. Turtles are really cool pets but need huge tanks. I wish you good luck!Casey

someone answered 4 X 1x1 inches Not big enough to take up a lot of room. I use it in a small tank and its fine in there

For babies, you could use paper towel if you feed it inside the cage. You can also use repti-carpet that you can get at you pet store. For adults, use reptile brand soil, paper towel, or repti-carpet. So yes this would be good for anole

I keep an African Dwarf Frog with my Betta. I really enjoy him. you could keep one or two small fish like terra. I would not personally put a goldfish in there. goldfish are very messy Fish and Aquarium even though it has a filter really isn't sufficient for that unless you want to do water changes a lot

my tank is 30 x 12 and this fits perfect. I think you might have a minor 1" gap on the long edge. There would be greater evaporation, possible spot for certain fish to jump out. Or find something to cover the gap.

I got mine for my pet gecko, it's deceptively tiny. It might be a little cramped for your bunny.

Yes it is. I used mine in a 2 gallon acrylic tank for a Betta , and it worked fine. I recommend checking the heater periodically to make sure it's working properly.

The length is approximately 4 1/2 inches. As long as your aquarium is at least that tall you should be fine.
