Got this on a whim from Amazon. Acrylic Crystal Zoo enclosure. Here's the link - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VEDTA80?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00
Better than i expected when i opened it. Bad part, it really stinks like plastic. I washed it really well and let it air out for a few hours before i put it together and set it up. I was worried the smell wouldn't be good for the Ts.
It comes in pieces. This one says it's 6.3"x6.3"x6.3", but the measurements on the inside are just under 6" on each side. I didn't really measure it to get an exact.
First concern. Vent slots are huge, if the Genic wasn't hiding in his hide in premolt i'd be worried. Tomorrow i'll be going to the hardware store to get heavy duty screen to hot glue over the vents on the outside.
Second concern. How the hell does it stay together? And that's a crafty idea they had for this. The tabs on each piece go into the slots on the others as you can to make the box. The part of the tab that sticks out the other side is notched. They send these rubber O ring type things to slip over the tab and lock it in place.
Good thing - It's actually solid, really solid. Bad thing - the rubber is soft so it will stretch over the tab. If you goof building it and have to remove the rubber thing, it breaks from the edge of the acrylic. Luckily they send you like 4 or 5 extra. Guess they saw that too
So here's the box assembled. Front and side view
Another good thing, It has a "hinged" lid. Even better is the lid slides back in the slots to lock down.
Thing i noticed filling it with substrate, the bottom is supported by 4 tabs though the 4 sides. When i was adding substrate and packing it down you could hear it creak a bit. Have to be careful not to break it packing the sub in.
Here we have the finished Genic enclosure. He's only 1.5" so this should fit him until he's 3 or 3.5" something like that.
Another bad thing i noticed after i had it all put together. Removing the protective paper covering makes the acrylic really staticky, if that's a word you can see all the cocofiber fibers clinging to the acrylic. Washing and drying it didn't help any, probably made it worse.
Pros - Cheap at $13.99 on Amazon. Solid, no gaps in edges. Lid makes it easy for maintenance/feeding.
Cons - Horrible smell, large vent slots, bottom supported only by the tabs. Not sure how long the rubber fastener things will last.
Also i saw they have an arboreal type enclosure on amazon for $31.99. It's roughly 9.5" x 9.5" x 13.5" Not a bad price compared to the others online like acrylicreptilecages.com
