Just a thought but what about a compromise. Even if you prefer a larger, more expensive new terrarium for Monty until you are able to save up for it, why not just purchase a sterlite or rubbermaid and set it up for him for now. You can likely get an appropriate sized one for $20.00 or less, depending on Monty's size. You must have all the stuff like hides, heating, etc. so it would just be the tub purchase and melting in some holes and whatever to make it secure so he can't escape.

Monty would then be safe and comfortable and you'd have the time to save up for whatever you'd prefer for him long term.
