[QUOTE="Tabitha, post: 142209, member: 27934"] Hi [USER=26980]@Whitelightning777[/USER] it was difficult to choose glass vivs, the options were exoterra but they were deep and I am not as keen on them as full glass fronts so in the end these ‘Komodo habitats’ were really all I could choose, not ideal as top opening, they do a front opening but the design doesn’t have the substrate guard as good as the exoterra but how often will I need to go in there anyway, I really love the full clear sheet of glass with minimal plastic edging etc, they are 40x30x30cm and 50x40x40cm, I like the larger size but they don’t use it much, it’s still nice to give them a good size viv, whether even those are too small I don’t know, the other reason I chose those that with minimal space to keep these Ts my shelves were only 40cm deep so exoterra would of been tricky, the lighting is led strip lighting for under cabinets in kitchens, the backgrounds are off eBay and are 3D foam aquarium backgrounds, the stone is fish tank stone, either dragon stone, iwagumi rocks, etc, the plants are all fake succulents etc, unfortunately my diy skills don’t run to slide out shelves so I had to sacrifice space above to be able to open, but again I don’t need to open other than feeding for the majority of the time, so they are ideal but work day to day and aesthetically.
