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!

from 281 reviewsAlways have wanted one of these beauties! Came in healthy and safe!
Beautiful Huntsman. Very quick and lovely to watch. I can’t wait for it to be an adult!
Great little sling! Can't wait til it gets colors.
Marshall's had over 200 Diolichothele diamanensis slings at unbeatable prices, so I bought 20 of them and a Psalmopoeus victori sling. They all shipped in, perfectly packed and in great condition. Definitely reccomended!
As the title states awesome service, very helpful in answering all my questions. Will definitely be back to buy more critters!
I was pleased to find one of these offered by Marshall Arachnids you don't really see them. I heard they were awesome webbers so I picked one up. It arrived healthy and is eating well and already webbed up a storm! Great vendor!
These are a perfect size and the construction is flawless! I love ‘em & so do my spiders and tarantulas!!
I 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 😉
Product - 10/10
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.
