Review: Amazing product - Good quality would recommend
Review: Great buy! Perfect for a beginner hermit crab enclosure - This was perfect! I got two hermit crabs recently and started adding individual item i needed to my cart (play sand, coconut substrate, water dish, sea sponge, water conditioner and aquarium salt, food) And it was over 3 times this much money! This was such a good deal and it was perfect for my tank and hermies. I wish the shell it came with was a little smaller but that's okay, I mainly got it for the substrate, sand, and water mixtures :)

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How big is the tank?**
A: Unfortunately it does not come with a tank!  I ordered this for my daughter and we both saw the picture of the tank on the cover and assumed it contained a tank as part of the kit.  It does not.  It only contains the sand and the hollow tree trunk.  It is a very deceptive cover!

**Q: What does it come with?**
A: A small amount of sand, water dishes, a shell, plastic plant, climbing rock, food and some water tablets.

**Q: What is high, width and length of cage?**
A: There is no cage. Although there is a picture of one on the box, it is just supplies and food.

**Q: how many gallons is it?**
A: I don’t remember, but I was disappointed. I thought I was order the tank and instead got some sand, solutions and a dish.
