Set up the terrarium in a few hours. The soil and sand were easy to mix and the booklet gave clear instructions. My hermit crab is active and eating well after a week. The water conditioner helped keep the water safe.

Great value for a beginner. Everything is included and the setup was straightforward. The care booklet is very helpful. My hermit crab has been thriving in the 10-gallon setup.

The sand and soil blend well. I noticed the water conditioner made a difference in water quality. The only thing missing was a small hiding spot, but it’s not required for a starter kit.
