Also if the enclosure is too large, a T won't be able to find food easily. I have numerous arboreal T's, and I have found not to go too big or use the wrong type of cage. Even if I drop in the feeder,they can still hunt the prey easily. You can look at any persons setup with the different types, they will employ a cage suiting the specimen. That's why I suggested in converting that cage, from terrestrial to arboreal. It has way too much floor space. I'm sorry its up to you what you decide, but take note of my reply. Test both setups, see which works best and come back to me on this.</blockquote>
