    You can't go wrong with a 3 x 2 x 15" for a jungle.

    A full grown coastal would be well off in a 4 x 2 x 2 foot cage.

    For my $$, you can't go wrong with BARRS cages. Google it to find out more about pricing, etc. Good luck and have fun!

    I would have to go with Chris on this but I prefer AP cages.

    Lots of different options on cages, chris is right on with the size recommendations for adults. A really big female jungle might want a 4 footer cage though.

    AP cages are quite popular among carpet owners.

    Re: thinking

    a 3x2 minimum for jungles, and I wouldn't go smaller than 4x2 for a coastal.

    They will most of the time appreciate height, so I'd go with 24" and fill it up with thick branches. If you go with AP, they can install a shelf for you, which my jungle loves.
