I really like this enclosure, just rehoused my roatan purple into it! I plan on getting more soon!
Title says it all. You get great air flow. Plenty of room for the type. High build quality. My spiders love them. Easy viewing as well.
These cages are very well made. Thick heavy and spectacular. I purchased three terrestrial and one arboreal cages. All arrived well packed and flawless. Shipping did take some time, but it was so worth the wait.
I purchased two of the new 7x4x4 purplebox enclosures and they are absolutely gorgeous. My purplebox arboreal enclosure is one of the few acrylic enclosures I've been satisfied with. Other brands have all experienced lid warping. With that in mind, I was excited to try out these new terrestrial appropriate enclosures.
I have not put them in use yet, but I will say that the acrylic for the lids is very thick (it appears to be roughly 1/4" - I did not measure). Other brands I've tried have lids that are about half that thick.I honestly have no concerns that it will warp. The sliding mechanics are also much smoother than any other brand I've tried. The taller handle is a nice touch.
Another feature I really prefer is that the acrylic that holds the magnets is one long bar along one end, and do not create a lip either all the way around, or blocking each corner, like other designs.
And of the course, the purple color of the base is amazing :) I recommend adding the feet as they are high-quality, soft, and sit square. There is no rocking if you're on a flat surface.
Awesome craftsmanship, great price, and exactly what I was looking for!
Let customers speak for us
from 274 reviewsI think the box is high quality nice thick clear acrylic with good cross ventilation just what I needed for my Caribena Versicolor but I do wish the top opened up
Excellent transaction all around! I’ll definitely be getting more!
Received twenty healthy and hungry youngsters… great quality and price and awesome communication throughout. Marshall Arachnids will be my go to going forward!
Everything arrived alive and well. They were a breeze to work with as well.
Great packing, great prices, amazing service, and all around cool owners 😉

I know they are manufactured with Tarantula Cribs now, but the Marshall enclosures are much prettier and the doors slide WAY better (esp. with some T poop gumming it up). I really have to force open the standard TC ones and it stresses the spiders, but the Marshall ones slide open like butter and I'm still confident they are magnet secure when closed.

I absolutely love my p.Metallica. I absolutely recommend Marshal Arachnids for any arachnid purchase. The team is very knowledgeable and caring. Thank you!
Want to start by saying Marshall Arachnids is extremely professional and delightful to order from.. I got the 12x8x8 enclosures and they are beautiful. If you wanna show off your Ts these are great.. packaging is perfect. Marshall's will take care of you all the way.
I ordered two unsexed juvenile Western black widows spiders and was lucky enough to get two females. They were shipped same-day and arrived overnight, well packed and in great health. They've both molted and eaten and everything seems to be going well! Thank you to Marshall Arachnids for my little companions! :)
I love the color and you can never go wrong with Tarantula Cribs. I like the ventilation slats, it's different
Simply the best on the market.
