i dont personally-but many do! i think the main problem with them is retaining humidity-you need to put some perspex or glass over part of the lid. Other than that-excellent little vivs from the look of them!

i was going to get one when i was thinking about darts-but realised i could have a fishtank which was double the size for cheaper. I then changed my mind and got whites tree frogs-so glad i went for a bigger viv!

Yup - I'm building mine with an 18" ET Viv.
I've put perspex over half the top, and it should work fine when I'm done.

Nice price, sturdy tanks.

Thye are great if you use the perspex idea and good for tree frogs. The new size 60 x45 x60 are superb! Darts require a diff set up as stated though.
