Abstract
A ventilated box enclosure for addressing the deficiencies of current terrarium designs is disclosed. At least six extruded acrylic sheets are used to form the ventilated box enclosure. The ventilated box enclosure comprises a top, a bottom, and vertical sides. Either the top or one of the vertical sides is hinged to an adjacent vertical side to form a hinged door. The door is hinged by at least two acrylic hinges. The hinged door is released open or secured shut by at least a pair of lockable hasps. Three or more screen vents ventilate the box enclosure, wherein at least one vent is located on the top and at least one vent is located at each of two diametrically opposite vertical sides. The edges of each acrylic sheet of the box enclosure are flame polished to a smooth finish.
