Product Information
If you're looking for a taller vivarium option to increase your hardscaping and planting potential, the Alto is it. The enclosure stands at 93.3cm tall (including light canopy) and has the exact same footprint as our Amazonia 56.5cm wide x 44.5cm deep).
It is a complete standalone vivarium package and includes both our LED light system and dual air circulation fans built in and ready to go. Imagine the Amazonia stretched vertically, with some upgraded features to help with the increased height:
- The LED lens is now clear glass to allow deeper light penetration
- We've increased the voltage on the circulation system to create greater circulation capability. A potentiometer (dimmer) is also included to reduce the voltage in case you find that you prefer less airflow
- 2 door handles to allow easy opening and removal of the doors (standard 3" handles can be changed out/customized to your preference)
- The composite back panel comes standard on the Alto, resulting in a weight reduction of 6kg
Also available as 'Ultimate Kit'. The ultimate kit includes everything you need to get started including:
- Alto vivarium
- Drainage layer and substrate
- Mistking Starter Kit
- 6 plant Neotropical vivarium start kit
Please note there is a 7-10 working day lead time upon purchase.
Because of its size (and to ensure proper packing for safe delivery) the Alto must be collected from our warehouse in Leeds. We can also deliver by freight at a cost of £50 or hand deliver at a rate of £0.50 per mile. Please contact us to discuss this if you are unable to collect.
Made in the UK.
