Looks good..but I can't see any ventilation.
Any pics of the snake you're getting? Basin or Northern emmy? |

I assumed there was some kind of invisible force-field instead of glass. My mistake!  |

In all seriousness, emmies do require a good level of air circulation to prevent bacteria and fungal growth in the viv. In the wild they get a more or less constant air-flow due to the breeze.
In addition to the viv ventilation, I actually open up my emmy vivs for about ten minutes per day just to make sure there is a good deal of air exchange.
cheers

Waiting for the ventilation panels to arrive tomorrow, one for the top left corner, the other bottom right. Glass hasn't been put in yet, runners wrong size. Thanks for your comments tough. _________________ 1.3 Normal Royal Pythons

Viv looks great mate.
What I would do before the emerald goes in, is put 4mm glass on the sides and bottom and silicone it in. Otherwise that viv will only last 6 months.
Emeralds like it humid! if the humidity is not right then you will get shedding problems |
