Lizard Lounger 27 x 20cm
A compact basking platform sized for smaller terrariums.
This Penn-Plax Reptology Lizard Lounger is a 27 x 20 cm hammock hand-woven from 100% natural seagrass fibre, the smallest size in Penn-Plax's Reptology lounger range. It suction-mounts to glass, plastic or acrylic, giving small to mid-size lizards a basking spot without taking up the wall space a full-size lounger needs.
Key features
- 100% natural seagrass fibre — hand-woven, consistent with the rest of the Reptology lounger range.
- 27 x 20 cm footprint — sized for compact and juvenile setups where a full-size lounger won't fit.
- Suction-cup mounted — fixes to glass, plastic or acrylic terrarium walls, no drilling or adhesive.
- Doubles as a shedding aid — the coarse natural fibre gives reptiles something to rub against during a shed.

Will it fit my enclosure?
Needs a clear, smooth wall at least 27 cm wide by 20 cm high — well suited to smaller and mid-size terrariums, or a juvenile setup where a 36 cm or 57 cm lounger would dominate the available glass. Position it within the basking zone, under a heat or UV lamp, on smooth glass or acrylic rather than a textured background.
Suitable for, and not suitable for
Suited to juvenile bearded dragons, leopard geckos, anoles and other small lizards, and hermit crabs. Not sized for adult, full-grown dragons or larger lizards — for those, Penn-Plax's Sun Lover or Vine Backdrop sizes give more platform to work with.
Care and maintenance
Spot clean with a diluted vinegar-and-water mix and dry fully before your reptile climbs back on. Wash the suction cups with plain water before mounting for the best grip. Ships folded flat and typically takes a few days to relax into shape once installed.
Warranty and delivery
Covered by your consumer guarantee rights under Australian Consumer Law. A small, lightweight item that ships standard.
Goes well with
A basking lamp sized to a compact enclosure, a UVB tube for daytime species, and a hide at floor level to complete a juvenile setup.
Common questions
Is this the same material as the larger Reptology loungers?
Yes — the whole Reptology lounger range, from this small size up to the Vine Backdrop, is hand-woven from 100% natural seagrass fibre and suction-mounts the same way.
Is it big enough for an adult bearded dragon?
No — at 27 x 20 cm this size suits juveniles and small lizards. Step up to the Sun Lover or Vine Backdrop for adult dragons and larger reptiles.
Do I need to buy a heat lamp separately?
Yes. The lounger is a basking platform only — position it under a separately sold heat or UV lamp for it to function as a basking spot.
