Enclosure Question

I'm thinking about purchasing a custom free standing insert for my current terrarium from insertswork.com and I want to make sure that my current enclosure (ExoTerra 18x18x24) is going to be big enough for my GTP to live a long healthy happy life

Re: Enclosure Question

There are lots of differing views about viv size for GTP's from my experience. Personally i have gone for a 48lx24hx24d and he uses every inch of it, but i also know of a breeder who recommends. 24" cube for them

Re: Enclosure Question

I am with Rob on this one... My GTP is in a 36" x 36" x 24" and I couldn't imagine putting him in something smaller. If you can afford to get him something bigger I would.

Re: Enclosure Question

Okay thats what i suspected. For right now i think this size is good considering he isnt very big but i will eventually get a bigger enclosure. Thanks for the feed back.

Re: Enclosure Question

Unlike the other snake, green tree need more space, they move around at night a lot. By the way, if you dry out some nice perches and seal it, it should work just like those inserts and it will be built under your own spec.
