So awhile back I found a cage on kijiji for $200.
It's 6' long, 4' high and almost 3' wide.
Picking it up was fun. It weighed over 150lbs and it was in the guys basement:
Brought it home:
My dads awesome and has helped me completely revamp the cage as I'm useless at handiwork.
The guy had heat bulbs inside covered in hardware mesh run on timers :o
Was not okay with that. Ripped it all out. Bought a huge RHP and mounted to the top. Cut a whole in the bottom of the wood, laid plexi over, and attached heat underneath which will be regulated.
Guy also didn't seal the inside of the cage. He used flex seal and sprayed the bottom. Not okay.
Went out and lined the walls and floor with Lino
As you can see in other pictures, it was a hideous green. Shocking what paint can do:
Finally, mounted drift wood:
All that's left is using aquarium silicone to seal the edges of Lino, adding plants and hooking it all up.
Will continue to update!
