Trixie cork tunnel XS–S for small pets, fits openings Ø 6–20 mm, pack of 10

Trixie cork tunnel XS–S is a set of 10 cork tunnel sections designed for small pets and terrarium environments. Each curved piece is made from natural cork and fits into openings with diameters between 6 and 20 mm, allowing simple assembly into longer tunnels, hiding spots or climbing structures. The neutral appearance and lightweight cork material make these tunnel sections suitable for creating secure passageways and decorative elements in enclosures for reptiles, small rodents and invertebrates.

Advantages

The cork construction is naturally lightweight, rot-resistant and provides a textured surface that supports climbing and grip. Packaged as ten matching sections, the product enables modular configurations and easy replacement of individual pieces. Cork is thermally neutral and does not sharply change enclosure microclimate, while its slightly rough surface helps animals establish foothold and shelter. The pieces require no additional tooling to install and can be used with common terrarium silicone or mechanical fasteners if permanent fixing is needed.

Suitable for

• Creating tunnels and hiding places in reptile terrariums
• Adding climbing or shelter structures for small rodents (hamsters, mice)
• Providing enrichment and cover for invertebrate enclosures
• Decorative natural accents and pathway connections within habitats

Key specifications

• Material: natural cork
• Pack quantity: 10 tunnel sections
• Compatible opening diameter: 6–20 mm
• Shape: curved tunnel segments for modular assembly
• Weight: lightweight, suitable for vertical and horizontal placement

How to use

Select a stable position inside the enclosure where the cork tunnel sections will not obstruct ventilation or heating elements. Fit each section into openings or join segments to form continuous tunnels; if required, secure joints with a small amount of pet-safe silicone or mechanical clips designed for terrarium use. Place the assembled tunnel so entrances are accessible to the animals and provide adjacent substrate or cover to make the shelter inviting. Regularly inspect for wear, loose debris or signs of mold and replace individual sections if damaged.

Usage recommendations

Use the cork tunnel pieces only as part of a well-ventilated and appropriately heated enclosure. Avoid placing sections in direct contact with open flames or high-temperature devices. Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild, pet-safe cleaner; allow to dry fully before returning to the habitat. Replace pieces showing structural breakdown or persistent contamination.
