Ill highly suggest ditching the glass aquarium and going for a xpvc cage.
Aquariums are hard to heat and usually result in the use of lamps which will kill your humidity.

This is my cage from Greg West. He's in Calgary, AB.

This cage maintains perfect temperatures. Humidity is at 50% at all times with no misting.
It's 3' x 2' by 16". I like the extra height. I also got glass doors as they tend to not scratch as easily.
Greg makes beautiful cages and racks and has excellent customer service. I have 2 of his cages and a custom incubator from him.

24"D is a bit to deep for the stand I have which looks to be a standard depth. Thank you for all these suggestions and links. They are great keep them coming. I will defiantly have to look into the PVC enclosures .

I agree, the border makes it very difficult :(

Greg will do custom sizes. Just sent him an email.

Do it, I have a Boaphile, some Boamasters, and two Monster enclosures. All are better than the tanks and more cost-effective in the long run since they hold heat better and I'm not constantly trying to keep the humidity up. I've been getting rid of the tanks.

I have 3 boaphiles and I have to say that Greg West's cages are way more nicely built. I like anything xpvc though!

I emailed Greg ( I think his name is ) about a possible custom size, we will see what he says. I like the fact he is in Canada, will be a bit better for shipping.
