    Locking Clips
    Has anyone used the following locking clips from Zilla and if so, will these suffice for 20G long and 9 month old BP? (I'm using a Zilla screen top)
    http://www.zilla-rules.com/products/...reen-clips.htm
    * I'm thinking 4 of these clips, one at each corner.

    I'm presently using two of the non-locking clips, one centered at each end, but I'm not real confident that this will do the trick.

    At some point I'll be upgrading to a 30G Critter Cage with the locking screen top but I'm not quite ready for that yet so I need a secure solution for my current setup.

    Thanks!

    Yeah, I'd have to concur with that. It's not ideal but I may have to toss some 5LB dumbell plates on the top (along with the clips) until I can either get the locking clips or some other solution.

    Zilla 'Tough Top' clips are actually a very good choice for BP tanks. I use two (on on the left front and one on the right back) for each tank and they have held from hatchlings to a 2300g+ female bent on finding a way out. :)
