Why Research-Backed Matters
Built on peer-reviewed studies, not pet store myths
"Finally, a builder that blocks dangerous products like heat rocks and calcium sand. No more guessing what's safe."

— First-time betta owner
"I didn't realize I needed a thermostat until the builder required it. Now my gecko's temps are perfect."
