Snake Tank Melbourne
Snake Tank Melbourne is what you have searched, and Reptile Life is the best place for Snakes Tank in Melbourne. We are based in 3 stores, Ferntree Gully, Hoppers Crossing and Norlane, Geelong.
When buying a snake tank, you can choose between 2 different types. There is the Melamine Timber snake tank and the other one, which is the Glass snake tank. We will explain the difference between these two types further down this page.
Check out the video below of some of the different types of snake tanks we have for sale.
Glass and Wooden Snake Tanks
The GLASS snake tanks are much easier to clean in comparison to their Wooden counterpart which needs extra care in cleaning when using water. When buying a Wooden Melamine snake tank, it is recommended that you line the timber joins with a small dab of silicone to prevent water from getting into gaps and damaging the wood.
Glass snake tanks tend to last longer, whereas Wood Melamine will deteriorate over some time. GLASS snake tanks are best suited for semi-aquatic species.
WOODEN snake tanks are much better at holding temperature than glass snake tanks because heat escapes faster in glass than wood. In terms of the price, tanks made from either glass or melamine are about the same.
ALL snake tanks need to have adequate ventilation. Good ventilation means that there shouldn’t be condensation build-up on the inside of the glass tanks. Ventilation is critical as humid environments for most desert-dwelling snakes and lizards will cause respiratory infections.
Both our Melamine Wooden Tanks and our Glass Tanks for sale at our store have the recommended level of ventilation, allowing sufficient airflow. Irrespective of what type of tanks you choose, you will need to add the correct lighting and heating according to the animal you are keeping.
Check out the video below of some of our range of heating and lighting options.

Snake/Python Care Sheets
Learn how to take care of your snakes/pythons by downloading these care sheets.
Do Snakes/Pythons Need UV Light?
For many years reptile keepers have been under the assumption that they do not require Ultra Violet Light. UV light regulates the production of Vitamin D3, which allows pythons/snakes to absorb and metabolise calcium properly.
Most keepers have kept their animals without UV for many years without any issue as they believe that the python will get enough calcium from the rats and mice they are feeding. Correct!
There is enough calcium in their food, but does their body absorb the calcium into their system well enough without the UV Light? It is where you, as a snake keeper, need to decide as there is so much conflicting information.
In summary, a UV light will provide benefits for your snake or python.
Snake Caves and Hideaways
You must keep your snake enclosure stress-free to maintain optimum health for your snakes. It is natural for snakes to hide in holes under rocks and logs to protect themselves from predators. You must support this natural behaviour by offering some hiding spots inside the snake enclosure.
Our reptile department at Reptilelife has a great range of snake caves and hideaways to choose from.
