Hi, I know this might sound like a strange question...but Inca's growing out of her faunarium and the only tank I have right now is a 45x45x45 glass exo-terra terrarium which my hamster used to live in. Do you think it would be OK to use for Inca if I really cleaned it out and gave it to Inca?
I can't afford to get a new Vivarium at the moment, but will do as soon as I can do.
Hope you can help x
P.S - Inca's doing really well and is growing well. Is feeding brilliantly, and constricts every time. She's now on fluffs as well. Will try and get a few photos up of her soon as I can find the wire to my camera. |

Looks good; rather different from what people usually seem to keep corns in but looks like snakey's happy :) |

thanks :) She seems to like it 
I've just got some ribbon type..stuff and put it through where the lid clips on and then taped it to the outside..if that makes sense. |

It's her very own tree house :P
Put another hanging basket thing up in there yesterday too and found her snuggled up in that this morning...thought corns preferred being on the ground?! Strange wee girlie.. |

Oh didn't think of doing that...  good shout!
This is how Peris is set up atm OP

I've just had permission from my parents that I can get a new vivarium next week when I get paid from work...so yay! I know the one I want to get Inca and that's the small version of the Viv Exotics Compact version on Swell Reptiles. It's perfect size for Inca and it also means I don't have to keep her in the glass tank now, which is a real reminder of my hamster Pepper, who died a couple of days ago and I don't want anything to remind me of Pepper now, so glad I can get the new Vivarium now.
I won't be moving Inca into her new Vivarium until it's fully set up and she's got through a couple of days after a feed.
Many thanks for your replies though, they have helped xx |

Oooh, I love the hanging coconut, and so does the snakey, by the looks of it :-).
It doesn't have to be a fish tank poster, you could even cut out a picture of a nice landscape from a magazine, for example, and stick it to the outside :-) |

I've got Peri in a slightly taller one atm and she's fine in there for now :) Though I managed to pick her up a 4x2x1.5ft for £25...but she's not quite ready for it yet :P |
