i was just about to ask about the Vivexotic VX36 as i have seen them for £97.89 including cabinet on seapets.co.uk, are they generally a good viv then mate or are they a complete bugger to build.

right well, the vivariums are really easy to build! took me about 10 minutes on my own and i'm terrible at DIY.. cabinet isnt great... bit flimsy and has massive gaps at the back but thats not so bad, its just that me and my mate could not get the doors to go on straight, they either overlapped or were wonky so after 2 hours we gave up.. but then again we're 2 18 year old guys haha, maybe its just us

ha ha there is a video on youtube that shows that they are the same types of hinges as kitchen cabnets, have you not tried adjusting the screws in the center of them.

why not call in your dad, there always handy for jobs like that.

i still havnt made my mind up on which viv i want, going to go for Vivexotic for the price

but dont know weather to go for the VX36 or AX36, mind it is for 2corns so its a hard choice

Could actually get a EX55 for that price, but dont think the misses would let me get one of them on account of space, as im wanting a 48inch tank for me turtles
