    Company?

    What is the best company to get a cage for a big retic?

    Should I get a 6ft long cage and then move up o a 8ft long cage?

    I am housing my male retic in a 42qt tub right now. He is about 5 months old, and about 4ft long give or take.

    Should I house him in a 72qt tub and then move to a big cage?

    Whatever I do, I do not want to deal with glass tanks, i hate them.

    Great companies.

    If you are going to get an 8' cage don't even bother with the 6' cage.

    I do however suggest getting maybe a 4' cage until he is big enough to go the 8' cage.

    I don't know how big a 72qt is so I can't comment on that.

    Animal plastics by far! Boaphiles, I've found to be too brittle, and difficult to clean when it came to giant's. For males, majority of my male giant's stayed in 6' cages, besides the extremely large males...extremely large....
