Right?! I was waiting to get one on Sale for my BP, and came across a vision cage for 100 so I got that, now I knida wish I would have waited. Nothing wrong with the Vision at all its a great cage I just think the APs look a little less industrial for a display tank. May need to get one for my corn though.

Thanks for all the replies and http://www.animalplastics.com/terrestrial/T8/T8.htm the T8 looks nice that's a great buy, do you suggest any of the extra featured options you can add to it?

Heat tape
Fluorescent light
Sliding glass doors and lock (swing doors scratch up)
Pop up diider(if you're buying a baby so you can section off the cage as it grows)

Tanks are nice for displaying the animal but a single tub can be bought foe a lot lessand much easier maintained. I have a tank now but when my girl outgrowa it ill be getting her a tub :) I'm partial to lessers, fires, mojaves, and pastels good luck n welcome!

Also just saw a male pied on fb for $500 with $65 shipping.

x 2 (with the addition of a second light - one for each side of the divider)

Also, I've never seen the T8s NOT on sale. :) API is backed up though, so you'll want to email them (Ali - she's awesome) to get a clear idea on how long the build time is this time of the year.

This is exactly how I have my two T8s set up:

The most important piece of husbandry equipment you need is a thermostat (http://www.spyderrobotics.com/store/...products_id=26). All you need after that is a thermometer (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...?ie=UTF8&psc=1), a pair of ceramic dishes (http://www.amazon.com/Ethical-3-Inch...all+crock+dish), and four hide boxes (http://www.reptilebasics.com/small-hide-box). Also, I prefer to use corrugated wrap for the bottom of the T8 (http://www.papermart.com/Product%20P...x?GroupID=4608). It makes clean up very easy (and trust me - there will be a lot of clean up).

Edit: Oh yeah - :welcome:

welcome! take you time getting a morph that you'll like. many are having a late breeding year. check craigslist for an enclosure. you can find deals on there sometimes. good luck don
