    For the price I would stick with another T8, I have my little guy in a vision cage right now and love it, but the $300+ price tag for a larger vision cage when he is grown is making me lean towards the T8 myself.

    Yeah our biggest girl is over 1800 gr and there's plenty of room for her plus hide and water bowl in a 41 qt tub.

    I'm not a melamine fan, i know there are people that love it, but its too heavy for my liking.

    Heavy as in just the physical weight of it?

    Yes, compared to the PVC cages. I have also had bad luck with moisture causing seperation of it, not sure how common that is though.

    You can pick up a 5 tier 41q rack second hand like animal plastics or something like that for $150. I keep girls twice that size in 41q tubs.

    Yeah, I'd just purchase a 41 QT rack, or build one yourself.

    Our subsaharan girl is in a 74QT standalone tub though and she makes it look small, thinking once I get her weight back on (laid last year and wouldnt touch anything but ASFs) she should be 4.2k grams.

    I can carry a 4' Boaphile by myself.
    I doubt I could easily carry a melamine cage of that size.
