XD  I'm surprised you haven't renamed her to Houdini!101 questions again (I'm sorry).  When you replaced the top with acryllic (I see you put air holes in for ventillation) how do you fasten the top down?  On my screen it looks like you've used silicone, but I'm guessing you don't re-silicone it every time you feed her?  Also will 10.5" be wide enough for her when she's fully grown? I'm trying to balance what will fit in the cabinet with ensuring mine has enough space and I can manage up to 13" depth of tank. The previous owner's daughter guestimated that mine was 7 or 8 years old, so I guess she may grow a bit more over the next few years -  does the rate of growth slow as they get older?What I keep looking for is a 12" x 12" x 24" enclosure - preferably with front opening doors, and good ventilation but I can't find one in the UK yet.  I'm very tempted to email Swell or Exo Terra and ask them why they don't make them ...
