  • Fantastic product, Turtle loves it, works on a 20g tank too
Pattern Name: Turtle Topper
Absolutely LOVE this product... would give it 6 stars if I could. No matter your current setup, no matter the size of your aquarium, this product will add 30% to 50% more swimming room for your turtle(s), because everyone else I know uses some sort of floating turtle dock that forces you to only partially fill whatever tank you have (plus some docks take up a lot of swim roon on their own account), while this product allows you to fill your aquarium nearly to the top (its actually kinda required because of the entry ramp). We have a 6 year old Yellow Bellied Slider of healthy size and our turtle has been thrilled ever since we added this to his 20-gallon aquarium (yeah, smaller then we'd like, but its much better now with this topper). He has a LOT more swimming room now then he had before because of the previous dock... well, basically the entire aquarium is free to swim in now... he LOVES the underwater platform, and has no problems climbing in or out of the basking area, which he loves because he can get totally 100% dry and bask in the warm lights all he wants now (and he goes back and forth a lot). I know most turtle owners have a 55 gallon tank which this is ideal for, but as a smaller tank owner (standard 25L x 14W x 18T), this is pretty much the only way you can pull off a smaller tank and not feel guilty about it. As the topper is about 17" long, a 20g tank owner will have about 8" left of space to work with... which for me was enough room to put a large filter and an aquarium light across the width of the tank (with the help of a stretched out wire coat hanger as added safety/support)... my turtle can actually use all 20g of the tank now for swimming, which probably puts him on par with a 40-50 gallon tank owner who's aquarium is only half-filled to support a standard floating dock. If there's a single negative to this product, its that no matter the size of your tank, you'll have to deal with whatever the 17" long topper itself doesn't cover, because the nature of the topper means you have to keep the aquarium filled near to the top. If you have a turtle with any hint of ninja escaping abilities, you're pretty much on your own on figuring out a way to cover the remaining space, as no off-the-store-shelf product will cover such an odd amount of leftover space. I was lucky that my filter and aquarium light nicely covered the remaining free space in my 20g tank. ... show more

  • Great product Great product
Pattern Name: Turtle Topper
My Mississippi Map Turtle loves this thing. He now has a lot more room to swim around and when he's feeling like catching some rays, he'll climb right up without any difficulty. The one thing that I hate about it is that I had to return my 48 inch light and replace it with a 24. It only lights half of the tank. I stuck a submersible light to the underside of the topper but I still have some dark spots. If this company integrated a light it would be way better. ... show more

  • World’s greatest aquatic pet turtle product!!!
Pattern Name: Turtle Topper
Finally, a company that has made the world’s greatest aquatic pet turtle product!!! It shows how scientifically advanced we have become, only you have to supply the lamp. My turtles were at first shy of it, but it only took a matter of minutes and less than a day for them to start taking turns climbing up into the enclosed platform to bask. The clear top is movable with ridges to clamp several lamps, from both sides, and a metal grid door on top that can open if you need to insert food, etc. into it. Everything is made super easy. I have five mapping turtles. The size is great for them and the topper fits on my 37 gallons, near perfectly. Make sure you measure the size before purchasing. The only natural setback is that the turtles can get spooked from the clear plastic and hop quickly back into the water. I suggest covering the clear plastic with plants or other décor to provide them with a more hidden environment and hence they are less likely to get spooked, but also less visible when they are in there. Overall, it is a great product for aquatic turtles!!! ... show more

  • Very nice invention Very nice invention
Pattern Name: Turtle Topper
I actually thought about making something like this myself but I never got around to it. The topper is very nice for my turtles needs. Its easy to put together and set up. My tank is 12 inches on the left and right side so it fit perfect. My 2 turtles are somewhat big but it fits them fine. 1 being about the size of my hand and the other a couple inches bigger than that. The few things I dislike and why I gave it a 4 star rating aren't that bad but id like to see an improved model some day. It comes with 2 suction cup fasteners when it should have 4. The ramp part is a little flimsy but it should hold. Its not wide enough that both turtles can get up the ramp at the same time. The material makes it a little noisy from the turtles claws and movement but its not bad. The ramp is a little thin and I would like to see it thicker and sturdier and a little longer but they still can get up fine. Some light reaches the bottom of the tank but not much so it is darker in there. But overall its a great product for only $45 and it beats those crappy floating docks or the board I had in there.....ill add some pics Edit: I actually noticed the next day that the top part of the topper had a large crack in it. I will talk to them about this and then make an update... Edit: I contacted them about the crack and they offered to replace it. I explained why I couldn't send it back witch was because I needed it. The crack was able to be pushed back into place and taped with clear tape. It looks fine to me and I don't think the turtles mind. They offered a $15 discount. So there is good service available. Edit: After a few days one of my turtles still hasn't climbed up into the basking area. One of them witch is the larger and friendlier of the two seems to be using it just fine. They really liked the underwater platform but I removed it for now so maybe they will climb up top more. I will give them more time then update.. ... show more

  • Still a great product, but would have designed it a little better
Pattern Name: Turtle Topper
Having used this for a month now, would just note, that the platform should ideally be designed a little longer. It's still a great product, but when the water evaporates, our turtle has a hard time climbing on. I.e. There is a minimum amount of water required in the tank to make it easy for the turtle to climb. We find ourselves having to refill the water 1 - 2 times/week to keep it adequately filled for her to be able to climb on. Not a terrible thing, but makes me nervous when we go away and have the neighbor hid kid taking care of her... if the climbing platform were a little longer this wouldn't be an issue. see my initial review below: We have a ~ 7 - 8 inch red-eared slider. Gradually we have been increasing tank size/water depth. She's been in a 55 gallon tank but we could never fill it up all the way as we had one of the floating plastic turtle ramps. With the old plastic ramp she managed to push the suction cups away from the wall of the aquarium so it was a constant battle to keep it in place. This is very sturdy, and stays securely in place. It also allowed us to fill the tank up almost to the top. We purchased clamp lamps to go with this and a new larger filter (The Eheim 2217). Now she has a lot of clean water to swim in and a great basking platform. She took to it quite quickly. She was up on it within a few hours and comfortably basking the next day. She loves the bar below for sleeping, resting. My only suggestion would be to make it so the tank would rest easily on any part of the tank, rather than just the end of it so she would have more room on the bottom bar for diving down the other side--it's a little close to the glass on that side. She's a great climber based on our past experience with rocks and other filters we've had in the tank but there's no way she would be able to escape with this. Not sure how it happened to one of the other people who posted. ... show more

  • Easily the best basking platform i've bought
Pattern Name: Turtle Topper
it's expensive, but 100% worth the money. I love this thing. It's easy to clean, looks great, and holds heat and humidity. I'm not worried about my turtle escaping out of this, and he's tried. It's sturdy and fits on top of a 40 Gal breeder if you use the extension brackets. My turtle loves sleeping on the platform beneath it. I only wish the ramp was much longer and the section for the lamps was much larger. It will fit his UVB and heat, but not very well. So far the heat lamp has discolored the clear plastic, but not melted it, despite being very close to the edge. So far he has not tipped it over, but when he claws at the sides trying to climb them, the weight of his plastron falling has knocked off his lamps. I wish there was a way to keep them more secure, the "clamp" sections are useless and just collect dust. ... show more

  • Product itself is good but could use some tweaking
Pattern Name: Turtle Topper
First one ordered was a disappointment. It's like buying it from a thrift store. No original box. All the pieces were thrown into an Amazon box. There was no manual or instructions and it was missing a side piece to keep the ramp in place. I would have made do with this unit if all the parts were there as it seems well made. Unfortunately, it was useless if I couldn't keep the ramp level. The replacement I received was the way it should have been the first time around with the manufacturer original box, a manual and everything neatly packaged inside. All parts were there. All parts seem sturdy and well made. It took some force to snap the ramp to the floor unit portion but once in I knew that it would stay in place. There are additional side supports for the ramp. My tank is a 29 gallon tank and the whole unit rested perfectly on top. I had a couple issues with this product and needed to make adjustments. The first was the ramp. It seemed to be hard for my red eared sliders to climb up on it. I have two of them (4 inch and 3 inch). As some others mentioned, the ramp may be too steep. It seemed that way in my case. I'm not sure if the water level had much impact on the ability for the turtles to climb. Also wondering if traction was an issue. I resolved my ramp issue by first extending it. I got the lid of those Hillshire Ham containers and cut it to size I wanted and then used hot glue gun to attach it. Then getting a shelf liner from 99 cent store. It's like the waffle, rubbery or foamy type and I guess waterproof. I just hot glue gunned the liner just above the side support of the ramp. After doing this my turtles are able to climb up nicely. My 4 inch one does it seamlessly. My 3 inch turtle seems to just wanna hang out on the ramp to bask. I don't know if it just wants to remain close to the water. My second issue is getting my basking lamp at the proper height. So the clamp attaches fine to the side on the cover but my lamp doesn't tilt down enough to get the right angle. So I went to Home Depot and bought an egg crate lighting panel /Louvre. One panel and I had plenty left over. I cut three pieces. Two for the bottom support and one for the top. I cut it wide enough to extend beyond the side supports. Used the hot glue gun again to attach all three pieces. It worked perfectly. There's plenty of room. I also added some of the shelf liner to the basking area. I wasn't sure if the plastic was getting too hot for my turtles as they weren't wanting to bask initially. So just to be sure I added the liner which doesn't seem to be affected by the heat. It is also soft so I thought my turtles would enjoy that better. Despite the hassle of getting a dud on the first go, I'm very satisfied after my modifications. It should last as long as my turtles do. ... show more

  • One Happy Turtle! One Happy Turtle!
Pattern Name: Turtle Topper
OMG! I have finally found something that works! My 20 year old red eared slider LOVES this basking platform. It was easy to put together and is very sturdy. It sits neatly on top of my 20L tank. Even tho the instructions say to allow time for the turtle to get used to it, mine was exploring and in it within 10 minutes. She can now get completely out of the water with ease rather than only half way as was the case with her previous floating dock. She and her goldfish friend now have a full tank to swim in. All three of us are so much happier! ... show more
