Rank #6 in Best Reptile Vivarium 2026: 10 Ranked, and the Tank Volume Fields That Don't Add Up
Repti-Life Repti-Luxe Arboreal Vivarium, 48 x 24 x 48 in, Black
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Repti-Luxe arboreal vivarium is at number 6 in this guide. It is a rectangular glass terrarium for reptiles, sold by Repti-Life in various sizes and colours, and the version priced at £273.99 is the 48 x 24 x 48 inch one in black. Its 4.7 rating comes from 61 ratings, and of the 100 ratings in the breakdown, 80 are five-star, 10 are four-star, 7 are three-star and 3 are two-star. The single bullet on the page says one word: "Stackable".
The numbers on this listing do not agree with each other, and the disagreement is the reason it is worth reading the fields rather than the title. The title sells a 48 x 24 x 48 inch arboreal, which is 121.9 x 61 x 121.9 cm. The Item Dimensions L x W x H field reads 121.9L x 61W x 4.8H centimetres: the same length and width, but a height of 4.8 cm. The Tank Volume field reads 576 cubic inches, while 48 x 24 x 48 inches works out at 55,296 cubic inches — roughly 96 times that figure. Everything below is copied from the Amazon listing as it stands, not from a vivarium we bought or tested.

Questions people ask
What size is the Repti-Luxe arboreal vivarium?
The listing is for the 48 x 24 x 48 inch version in Black, at £273.99. The Item Dimensions L x W x H field on the same listing reads 121.9L x 61W x 4.8H centimetres.
Why is the listed height 4.8 cm?
The listing does not explain it. The Repti-Luxe title says 48 inches tall and the dimensions field says 4.8 cm high; 48 inches is 121.9 cm, so the two figures on the page do not match.
What is the tank volume of this Repti-Luxe vivarium?
The Tank Volume field reads 576 Cubic Inches. A box of 48 x 24 x 48 inches comes to 55,296 cubic inches, so the listed volume is far below the size named in the title.
What comes in the box?
Included Components lists "instructions", Number of Items is 1 and Number of Packs is 1. The only bullet on the page is the word "Stackable".
Is the Repti-Luxe arboreal vivarium stackable?
Yes — both the single bullet and the Special Features field say "Stackable".
Where is the Repti-Luxe vivarium made?
The Country Of Origin field reads United Kingdom, and the brand and manufacturer are both listed as Repti-Life.
