Product Description

Penn-Plax Reptology Aquatic Turtle Pier, Floating Basking Platform, Large

Rests Just Above the Waterline - This turtle pier functions as a floating turtle dock, sitting just above the surface so your pet can bask, eat and rest outside the water, while giving you a better view and more time to interact.
Adjustable Suction-Cup Supports - Four pylons attach to the fish tank floor with suction cups and adjust in height, creating an aquatic turtle basking platform your pet can climb onto; clean the cups and tank surface well beforehand for a strong hold.
Built-In Docking Ramp - This turtle ramp gives your pet easy access onto the platform, while a built-in gravel bin adds counterweight so everything stays balanced as they climb aboard (gravel sold separately).
Hideaway Sized for Larger Tanks - The underside doubles as a turtle hideout for turtles, frogs, newts and salamanders, adding aquarium decor to dry terrariums or 20-gallon-plus tanks. The platform measures 16"D x 11"W x 8"H (20.5" with ramp); pylons adjust 3"-16".
Penn-Plax Legacy - With over 60 years of innovation, Penn-Plax creates expertly crafted, dependable pet products designed to enrich habitats, inspire creativity, and promote the health and happiness of pets everywhere

The Penn Plax Reptology Large Turtle Pier is a great way to interact more closely with your favorite reptile pet while also satisfying their natural urge for basking. Pier can be used both as a floating platform when placed in water or can be used in terrarium environments without water. When placed in an aquarium, the turtle pier will float just above the water line and stays in place with 4 pylons that attach with suctions cups at the bottom of the tank. Platform is suitable for 20 gallon tanks and up and pylons can extend from 12 inches to 16 inches if needed. Turtles will enter the platform on the ramp which is specifically designed for their shape making it easy to climb up and down. Depending on the size of your pet, a gravel bin allows you to balance the weight by adding more or less gravel as needed (sold separately). When used in reptile tanks as a traditional basking platform, the pylon legs can be lowered to 3 inches and are secured with the suction cups to keep it from moving. In addition to the upper platform, many small reptiles will use the underside to fulfill their natural instinct for concealment and will rest underneath. This basking platform is great for turtles but is also suitable for frogs, newts, salamanders, and other small reptile pets. It measures 16 inches long by 11 inches deep and will vary in height depending on the pylon setting. Turtle basking platform is made of quality, non-toxic plastic that is safe for both children and pets. Light assembly is required.
