Full details
The Exo Terra Tiki Totem Ornament is designed for reptile keepers looking to enhance their terrariums with a functional and decorative piece inspired by South Pacific aesthetics.

FAQs
Is the material safe for all reptiles?
Yes, it is made from non-toxic materials designed specifically for reptile terrariums.
Can I put this in a desert setup?
While it is designed for tropical setups, it can be used in desert enclosures, though the Tiki aesthetic is better suited to tropical or island-themed environments.
How do I clean the inside of the hide?
Use a long-handled soft brush or sponge with warm water to reach inside the hide area during your regular cleaning routine.
Is this totem heavy enough to prevent being knocked over?
It is designed with a sturdy, weighted base to withstand normal movement from small to medium-sized reptiles.
Does it come in other sizes?

Troubleshooting
The ornament is sliding on the substrate.
Clear away excess substrate under the totem to ensure it sits directly on the glass or bottom frame of the terrarium.
The water basin is becoming dirty quickly.
Ensure the totem is placed away from heavy substrate traffic areas and rinse the basin daily during water changes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the ornament, place it in an area of the terrarium that allows your pet easy access. It is compatible with most tropical and rainforest-themed enclosures. For maintenance, simply remove the totem during regular cage cleanings. Wash it with warm water and a reptile-safe disinfectant. Avoid using harsh chemical soaps that could leave residues harmful to sensitive reptiles. If the feeding/water basin becomes stained, a soft brush can be used to scrub the surface gently without scratching the decorative finish.
