HabiStat Round Plastic Water Bowl

The HabiStat Round Plastic Water Bowl is a simple, durable, and easy-to-clean water bowl for reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates. Its round shape, neutral earth tone, and variety of available sizes make the bowl suitable for a wide range of terrariums. Use it for clean drinking water or as a practical feeding bowl for vegetables, pellets, and other suitable foods.

HabiStat Round Plastic Water Bowl for Reptiles

An easily accessible water source is essential in virtually every terrarium. Reptiles from steppe, savanna, and desert regions must also have constant access to fresh drinking water. Bearded dragons and leopard geckos may not always drink in plain sight, but they must be able to reach a safe water dish on their own.

The smaller sizes are suitable for compact terrariums and smaller animals, such as leopard geckos, young lizards, and various invertebrates. For an adult bearded dragon or medium-sized snake, you can choose a larger model. Always ensure a safe water depth and make sure your pet can easily reach the water.

For snakes such as corn snakes and ball pythons, a stable water dish is important. Many snakes move along or over their water dish and can knock a very light dish out of place. Therefore, always place the HabiStat water dish on a flat surface and check regularly to make sure it is still secure.

Suitable for dry and tropical terrariums

The brown earth tone goes well with sand, loam, stones, cork, wood, and various types of terrarium substrate. This makes this round plastic water dish ideal for use in a desert terrarium for a bearded dragon, a steppe terrarium for a leopard gecko, or a naturally decorated enclosure for a snake.

The water dish is also suitable for use in tropical terrariums, paludariums, and faunariums. Smaller versions can be used, for example, for frogs, salamanders, arachnids, and insects. Always adjust the size and water depth to suit the species. A dish suitable for an adult snake may be too deep for a small frog or invertebrate.

If desired, use the water dish as a feeding dish. The smooth plastic is suitable for serving vegetables, pellets, or other non-live food. For drinking water and food, it’s best to use two separate dishes so the water doesn’t get dirty as quickly.

What size round plastic water bowl do you need?

The HabiStat Round Plastic Water Bowl is available in various sizes. Don’t automatically choose the largest size; instead, consider your pet’s size, the available floor space, and the intended use.

The applications listed are for illustrative purposes only. Take each animal’s individual needs into account and ensure that small animals cannot drown. A smooth stone or a piece of cork can provide an additional way for very small animals to climb out.

Practical plastic for daily maintenance

This durable plastic is lightweight and does not absorb water. The rounded interior has no hard-to-reach corners, making it easy to remove dirt and food residue. This makes the HabiStat Round Plastic Water Bowl suitable for daily use and regular cleaning.

Cleaning the HabiStat Round Plastic Water Bowl

Change the drinking water every day and immediately if sand, substrate, food, or feces get into it. Rinse the bowl with warm water and remove any buildup with a soft sponge or brush. Avoid harsh or strongly scented cleaning products.

Check the plastic regularly for deep scratches, cracks, and damage. Dirt can accumulate more easily in scratches. Replace the bowl when it can no longer be kept clean or has developed sharp edges.

Instructions for use

Place the HabiStat Round Plastic Water Bowl on a flat, stable surface that your animal can easily reach. Choose a size and water depth that suit the species and body size. Preferably, do not place the bowl directly under the hottest lamp, so that the water heats up and evaporates less quickly. Fill it with fresh water daily and clean it regularly.
