    Nope, not for a BP. It's kind of common knowledge on this forum that to much space will stress a BP. You just need appropriate space for the hot and cool sides/hides and a water dish. If it concerns you, there is a vision with a little more floor space for the same price. It is the 221. Only down side of that one is the lack of a spot for a light fixture. I have seen them with LED strip installed for display purposes. I have a couple of these ones as well. I prefer them because I don't use light anyway.

    I agree the 211 is a good size for most male royals for life and many females some really large ones look quite cramped in such a small space (I have a 3700 gm 6'6" female that I would say it is too small) but I currently have a 1700 gm male in mine. All my other females I would not hesitate to place in it. I really like the little extra height the 2 inches over 12 make the front opening 12 or so and it is easier to reach inside for cleaning. I would not own any other brand if it wasn't so costly to get it to Canada.

    On the 211, there is a "vent" opening that the small exo terra light fixture fits in nicely. http://lllreptile.com/store/catalog/...ium-canopy-12/

    You could also figure out any number of things to light it.

    The 211 is the only one with a vent that a light can fit in. The 221 doesnt have a vent.
