Lixit Wire and Aquarium Cage Water Bottle Chew Guard for Guinea Pigs, Rats, Rabbits, Ferrets Hamsters and Other Small Animals. (8oz)

Love it. So want to let others know about it. I originally looped string through hole in top of this, put knots in the string end, then pushed the lid of my tank onto the string to keep it in place. But the simpler method is to bend the very back piece of metal, that is behind the back of the holder to cover the rim of your tank. It's easy to bend and different to the harder metal the rest is made of. This is the second one of these I've brought, the first about a year ago (that one is still as good as new). Plus I feel price of item from this seller is good.Gerbil Review. This item is really good. I sometimes chew it but nothing happens. Because I like climbing I can jump, then hold onto the spring bottle holder and get onto the top of the water bottle. I did this a few times and enjoyed chewing through the string! Down went the holder and bottle! My owner has got round this problem by buying a bottle with a hanging loop on top, so I don't have space to get onto it anymore! Also the spring can be placed behind the back of the holder Also i still get water from the bottle without it being held in place with that spring. We both really like this item. The owner found ways around the my gerbil misadventure. But it took two weeks to arrive so bear that in mind.

We converted a large terrarium to house our two gerbils. We struggled with the free standing bottle holders as the gerbils kept chewing their way through the base. We purchased this and some heavy duty velcro which has done the trick. This has now been holding for months.

Bought this for my glass gerbilarium as most of the other ones available don't work unless you have a wire cage. I attached some industrial velcro to the smooth metal side and stuck it to the inside of my glass tank so I don't quite use it as it's intended but it works for me perfectly. The gerbils can't gnaw through the metal holder and it keeps the water bottle perfectly in place.

Great chew guard! One of my gerbils would chew through anything and the bottle needed to be hung from the side of the cage. I tried glass bottles and come other chew guards, but none worked well. The other chew guards were flimsy, got rusty really quick and the gerbils managed to break the strap. This chew guard works perfectly even with a plastic bottle.

I used it for attached heavy duty velcro on the back on so it could go in my robo hamsters tank. It took a while to arrive but as it's American I can't fault them.Does the job for the money, good value.

Well made ..you can put any round water bottles... very light but strong ... l attached mine to my glass cage with industrial strengh velcro .. ( tip for you guys) ... came quick as well ..
