    Show & Display cages/tanks
    If you have a animal on display or for show off... If you could, please post a picture of it's set up.

    This weekend I will be setting up two display tanks. One for my corn snake and one for my jungle carpet python. I don't want them to both look the same, so I'd like to see what you all used to get some idea's.

    Thanks!

    I don't have a show tank "yet" but I do have a couple of questions about yours.


    How do you keep the snake from escaping? It appears the back of the top is open? How are you keeping the fold up door latched to prevent escapes?:confused:

    Looks nice by the way I am just curious.

    There are metal screens that slide on i just had them off in the pic, i had just finished changing water and handling for a lil while. The fold up door is just to hid the light fixtures, i have screens with locks that slip in so she cannot escape.

    I try to make all of our adult caging "display" quality and although we keep things Spartan, they could easily be turned into a "display".

    Those acrylics are awesome I think I want to go that route with my ATB's when they are closer to adult size.

    Thanks! They are a blast to build. I have been working on a well illustrated tutorial for building them. The best part is that you decide where and how you want things.
