It's weird, I read on another forum that someone went into a pet shop to buy a crestie and the shop owner wouldn't sell it to them because they were going to use an exo terra. This shop keeper insisted that all glass tanks were unsuitable for reptiles as they don't keep the heat in (!) The person tried to explain that cresties have more problems from being overheated than under-heated but she was having none of it.

I think i made the exact same post on this forum. I contacted a petshop that had a website showing cresties and asked about this rule as they stated NO REPTILES would be sold if they beleived they were going to glass instead of wood. I emailed explaining it was a crestie and i had the exo terra i mentioned the ventilation being very good in these not like a wooden viv and the humidity and was met with a brick wall. They just restated in their opion glass housing is not suitable for any retiloe and they were unwilling to sell

When i posted it on here you guys confirmed glass for crested was best and the exo terra were ideal

anyway just thought id mention it
