I have a 10 gallon tank and was wondering would this be appropriate or something smaller?

It will work as long as the heat bulb is not to hot for such a small tank, you could over heat the animal and it could die so check you temps.

If you tank is long enough or about the same size of the light is perfect . Because you will have night and day light and heat for you reptile . If your tank is tall and not long enough so go for another type of light but remember you to have day and night light and heat / humidity in your tank all the time and food / water and where to hide . Good luck

No, it's too big for a 10 gallon tank. You have to upgrade to at least a 20 gallon tank. But it's worth it. My turtle loves his new habitat.

I use the mini for the 5 gallon and it is a good size for that tank. It might be a little small for a 10 gallon. I just searched through the customer reviews and many that have a 10 gallon say it will work for the 10. You can search customer reviews for "10", or look at the other questions that answer about the 10 gallon.

I sat mine inside of a ten gallon tank when I was moving, it fits but takes up almost half of the tank. It will be fine if you have something less than 4-5 inches in there. Just keep in mind the water level has to be a certain level for the filter to function properly.

It won't hurt but its not necessary. The large size is meant for a 110 gallon tank or larger! I use a small one in my 60 gallon tank and it works great.

I wouldn't. I put mine in my 5 gallon Fluval Chi (minus the original light/filter) It's OK for that. But not a 10 gallon in my opinion.

A 10 gallon tank might fit in the middle but I doubt if there is enough room for the lid and filter. I think you would have to go a lot smaller for the middle shelf.

I have a 10 gallon on top. The bottom is narrower so a 10 gallon won't fit. Maybe a 5 gallon on bottom.

I am sorry but I am not sure...I have the smallest one for my 10-gallon tank.

Hi,I have a 10 gallon tank and it's fine! I didn't think there would be a smaller one. It definitely does the job. X

I don't think so, unless the 10 gallon tank is not very tall. I had a 10.5" tall 3 gallon tank in the middle and it was a tight squeeze . Either way the shelf probably won't hold that much weight ( I moved mine else where because the stand kept making really strange creaking noises all the time )

I use the mini siphon on my ten gallon and it works awesome! I had a larger one from a different aquarium and it really was impractical for that size tank.

Is the 5 gallon tank bigger than 10 inches? If so Id say yes. If not then no.

Yes, I purchased this specifically for a 10 gallon and it worked very well. It is an extremely efficient filter, easy to change cartridges, and basically soundless. Could not be better for a smaller tank.

Casey is correct....this is way to small. It will be okay temporarily, but you will have to get a bigger tank and a better filtration system. It's cheaper/better to just start out with a bigger tank. Even the 15g-20g suggestion will be too small at some point. Here's a link to a really good care sheet: http://www.austinsturtlepage.com/Care/housing.htmAt one point I had 7 turtles and they are great animals, but they do require a lot of work that pet stores don't tell you.

In my opinion, depending on how many hermits you have, I would recommend anywhere from a 5-10 gallon tank. This one would be too small. I'm using this tank for a smaller species tarantula. Hermies need more space than this tank would provide.
