I need this to put in a small water dish for my lizard, I need something to give the water some motion (he cant see still water) will this do the job?

Well, it needs about an inch of water to work properly, so you would want to have a fairly deep water dish. I have one in each of my terraria to power a water feature, and they don't heat up or make a lot of noise if that was a concern. Depending on the size of your lizard you'd have to worry about the suction grabbing a toe too. In my opinion, it would probably work, but I don't recommend it. Idk what your setup is like, but you might be better off with one of those automatic water bowls like they sell for cats, or if you have the capability to set up a water feature with th is pump in the lizard's environment, that would look better for him and you, haha.

If you're looking for water movement, I highly suggest an air pump, air line and air stone. This is over kill for that... if you really want it, make sure the dish is several inches thick. This pump can be adjusted but may still be too strong. I usually use these just for waterfalls in vivariums.

It might work. I haven`t tried that. Might be better off getting a small air pump with a air stone. It will add humidity as well as moving the water

Yes and I use mine the same way but make sure the bowl you are using is deep enough otherwise water everywhere

It will definitely move the water well, but it may be to big and move too much if it is a small dish. We use ours in a water bath that uses a couple of gallons of water.

It would work for a 2 gallon glass bowl. However, I don't think it's designed to be suctioned to the outside, it might melt instead of dissipating the heat to the inside of the tank.

Works well on a vertical pole. It hangs loosely and the squirrels slide off if they manage to jump on it. It solved my squirrel and raccoon problem. Stabilization may be a problem horizonally.

Sorry but I can't answer. I only used it for lizards and frogs but my brother used it for squirrels. He said it worked but only for a little while.

No, the water would overflow and all you would have left is a small amount. This has to be used for feed so the gravity takes it to the tray. Suggest getting a similar size but made for water where the water is regulated.

I wouldn't recommend this for fish its fine grain would clog up a filter system. Its geared for reptiles and such.

I think it would be ok for small reptiles, etc. but the light wouldn't provide enough of a heat source.

I would give it at least 2-3 inches water depth. It works fine floating around. The suction cups comes with a string so it will move some. Keep in mind it only works in direct sun. It will not work on cloudy days or just day light.

I do not recommend it. I have tried it with a smaller snake. It was very difficult and scratched the bowl. This is much larger and likely to get stuck or worse. Try an old-fashioned plunger. Better yet, try to find a cleanout and run the snake from that direction. Good luck.

I purchased this for a cockatiel, it's very small, more like for a parakeet or finch sized bird. I ended up taking the top off mine and using it for a water bowl. I'd recommend getting a bigger bath than this one.

I use it for bearded dragon eggs, so I believe it would. The temperature needs to be monitored closely with an outside thermometer!

I am not an expert, but I believe this would work for you provided you do not place it where your turtle will get too close to it (it doesn't get very hot, but it could give off too much UV).

First off, if you have an aquatic turtle he needs more water than that. If it is a tortoise enclosure, this filter will do just fine. It is not meant for heavy duty aquarium filtration. If you have 10+ gallons I would not recommend.

I believe it can be used for hermit crabs as well. It is made of plastic, and although shaped like a rock it can possibly be a slick surface, especially in the water bowl part. I would bury it down in the substrate if possible to make it less of a hill to climb, as well as think about having a sponge or something in the bowl, so that water is accessible and they can still easily maneuver in/around. It's a nice item to have. You'll have to play it by ear when you receive it, but my suggestions should counter any problems.

No it can't, it is a reptile tank I got it for my bearded dragon a while back. It's not built to hold water, you should look into aquarium tanks.

It will not work if your tank is flat on the bottom. I guess it could but it might damage your tank or the stand because of tg heaviness of the water.I bought the one that sticks on to the side of the tank for my turtles. But if your tank has cut outs likely dragon tank it will work just fine.

Definitely not! It is for decoration only as it has no filtration system. The faux jellyfish are somewhat fragile and move about in a 2.5" depth tank. Also a few drops of dish detergent is added to the water to make their movement more fluid. Any type of fish will have different water requirements in order to sustain a healthy environment.
