Best Enclosure Sites - sticky needed
From what I have observed the enclosures with the most every day availability are the generic, built to be fish tanks (for the most part) glass tanks. Many of us (including myself) would agree that these enclosures aren't the best option for any situation as they do a poor job in holding temp and humidity as well as leave visibility from all angles which gives the snake less security. I think it would be helpful if we had a sticky listing the best, most reliable sites that sell enclosures that are actually built for snakes.
Myself, I have had a good experience purchasing from herpcages.com. I found them because I'm a fan of viperkeeper vids.
I was wondering what sites the community here uses when purchasing enclosures.

They'll be back
In canada, Greg West from cornels does nice work.
Sentec will also ship to canada.
You pay for sentec but its the best.

Greg is pretty decent, just wish his PVC was hollow core.

Re: Best Enclosure Sites - sticky needed
I like Acadian Enclosures out of Louisiana. Just ordered 2 cages from him and will post pics when he finishes them. Very reasonable prices too!!
