Ordered a viv wednesday afternoon it arrived at 8 this morning unfortunately 1 of the glass runners was broken. I couldnt believe how helpful they were and will get the runner by monday. Nice to find old fashioned customer care from a modern company. |

Just out of curiosity, was it a VivExotic and the glass jamming on the runner? |

It was the bottom plastic runner I had problems with. It was pinched and jammed the glass when trying to open it. Replacement was promptly sent out from SPS. I also contacted the manufacturers who just happen to be in Glasgow. Had a chat with one of their reps and it turned out to be a fault in the extrusion process. They also sent me out a full replacement set of runners. Guess I'll just have to build a new stack now. What a bummer, eh! |

Glad they sorted it out for you! My sister has a four foot vivexotic housing a chuckwalla (lizard) and the top runners are too high for the glass, whenever she tries to open it, she has to be careful not to push the glass into the viv O: I only recently learnt of this. But she can't be bothered to send it back- she seems to cope. But I know I wouldn't!! (note: idk where she bought it, not seapets!) |

Larka, swap the runners over, the top runners are deeper than the bottom ones so you can slip the glass up and into the bottom runners. |

They go together very easily, wouldn't think you'd have any problems building it |

This is all good to know. I've just had a new lodger move in, so I've got spare cash to get vivs and decor!
SPS for the decor and Seapets for the vivs! |

Their prives do seem crazy good on the vivs, on average how long does it take to put one together? |

3ft vivs with sealing, light fittings, mats and making escape proof an hour should do it. I picked up 5 this morning from SPS, now just got to find the time to build! Got 2 4ft EX ones and these take a little longer and is easier with two of you. |
