Yes! We have several of our personal enclosures setup bio-active and love it! Our enclosures do not require any special litter guards or plastic liners to be used bioactive. Kages enclosures all come bioactive ready!

Absolutely! We have designed our reptile enclosures to allow for adequate substrate. 2 series enclosures have a 4-in substrate board allowing room to place the perfect amount of substrate for your reptile.

We use a non-porous PVC that’s moisture resistant. We recommend purchasing reptile safe silicone so you can seal the seams. Silicone is optional however we recommended it for use with bio-active setups and snakes. Moisture from general use and a bio-active setup will not cause issues with the enclosure. However, it is not waterproof like an aquarium meaning it will not hold water.

Yes, however we urge you to use common sense. The enclosures weigh over 50 lbs empty, and we do not recommend stacking more than 250 lbs onto any enclosure.
