    I have four tanks and three PVC running currently. My plans are to have everyone in PVC this year.
    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    Great advice! Can I get away with a 2x2x1 or should I go with the 4x2x1. I fee that's rather large!

    This is one my guys in a 36x24x14. Plenty big for a male. I have my larger girls in 48x24x14 inch units. When I took this shot he was sitting around 600g for a size reference.

    I wish I could find a 36 hha. I have an option to buy a 48 today and it be great for the snake but it is so massive and hard to move around. If it won't effect the snake I'd love to go with a 24 or 36. He is about 1500 grams.

    SKO - why don't you like sliding doors? I love mine, it makes feeding time super easy and they come off in a second for cleaning
    I do like the sliding doors but I can definitely see the how the front opening doors would be beneficial.

    SO beautiful! I love it! Also probably makes maintenance easier as well.

    Re: Do I switch to pvc?

    We're switching (as budget permits) from glass to AP enclosures. I prefer the white to black, personally, as it keeps the room they're in looking lighter.

    Re: Do I switch to pvc?

    Great advice everyone. I have a pvc cage on order! My question is how did you guys all light yours? It looks great all lighted up but I have no idea how you do that without drilling holes haha. If it's inside won't the snake burn itself?

    Animal plastics now has an LED option... they cut a channel in the PVC and will put the LED's in that channel. That option isn't on their site yet, but I was told if you call them, they will do it for you.
