Exo Terra Crested Gecko Accessory Kit | Vivarium Setup Kit

The ET Crested Gecko Accessory Kit brings together the core equipment needed to set up a crested gecko (Correlophus ciliatus) enclosure without the guesswork. Lighting, UVB, heating, humidity monitoring, substrate, and basic furnishings are all included — chosen specifically for the husbandry demands of this species. You will still need a suitable enclosure, and we recommend adding a heat mat with an on/off thermostat to cover nighttime heating requirements.

What's in the kit

• T5 UVB fixture (8W) and T5 UVB100 bulb (8W)
• Daylight spot bulb (75W)
• Light dome and bracket
• Thermostat (300W)
• Digital combometer for temperature and humidity monitoring
• Plantation soil substrate
• Water dish and reptile hide

Lighting and UVB

The 8W T5 UVB100 tube and fixture provide low-level UVB exposure appropriate for a crepuscular arboreal species. The 75W daylight spot bulb supplies a basking point and contributes to the thermal gradient your gecko needs to thermoregulate effectively.

Heating and monitoring

The included 300W thermostat keeps heating equipment under control and prevents dangerous temperature spikes. The digital combometer lets you track both temperature and humidity at a glance — essential for a species that requires consistent ambient humidity. For overnight heating, a heat mat paired with an on/off thermostat is recommended in addition to this kit.

Substrate and furnishings

Plantation soil provides a naturalistic, moisture-retaining base layer suited to a bioactive or semi-natural setup. The water dish and hide give your gecko immediate access to drinking water and a secure retreat from the outset.

Enclosure compatibility

This kit is designed for use with terrariums of 45 x 45 x 45 cm and above. The enclosure itself is not included.

Whether you are setting up your first crested gecko vivarium or streamlining a repeat build, this kit removes the need to source each component separately and ensures the key bases are covered from day one.
