In was just wondering if anyone had tried stacking two Exo Terra 12" vivs one on top of the other ??
Are there any problems likely to occur ?
i.e. not enough air circulated on the bottom viv or temps toonhigh on them both due to hear rising intomthe top one and not being able to escape from the bottom one ?? |

Viv stacks are common, if your using heat mats for corns then it will be fine its only if your using bulbs/ceramics for heating it becomes slightly problematic though not impossible, air gaps and insulating usually overcomes any problems. |

Do you mean the glass terrariums with the mesh roof? |

can't see a problem with the plastic fauns but the glass vivaria?? i personally wouldn't risk it! they're too heavy, too fragile and too unstable with their funny bases!! |

Yeah I'll second that, glass is not a load bearing material. I thought you meant wooden vivarium, though you could build a wooden frame to support the weight. |
