Hello, so i picked up my taiwan beauty today and am aware he will grow to a rather large size and will need atleast a 4X2X3
Ive had a look and found a couple i like (looking at possibility of a corner one)
However, i am contemplating building one myself i am just wondering how easy people have found this to do?
Thank you

| Pretty easy and a very rewarding project. Spent a few weeks working evenings doing my viv stacks, I got the furniture board from B&Q so they could cut it to size, and put the pieces together using cam fittings, I opted for perspex doors and not had a problem with them. Especially a viv that size you could safe a lot of money. |

I've built two. They are around 4-5ft in length. You could probably make the two into one vivarium by just taking away a plank of wood.
I used all Ikea products. Everything from the lighting to the glass.
Good luck
Here's mine mid build
