I think, especially with ackies , that they'll pretty much use all the space you can give them.
I was thinking about drilling a four inch hole through the wall with a core bit fixing some four inch pipe in it and building another viv on the other side, attached to it.
nothing to say you couldnt go up or down into different rooms either, might need to own your own home though
Nice viv by the way

What substrate do you have in your dig box?? My old viv has a deep section built in and I may do another section for the new viv but I'm thinking it may be better to use a box.......hmmmm decisions.....

Cheers

[herp_boi]

i prefer using a dig box. Because i like the idea of a nice box full with humid substrate.

Oh yeah the substrate is peat and play sand about 60% peat and 40% sand.

i find it really good they have a huge burrow sometimes if i poke my fingers in i can only just! feel there tail they obviously like this.
It holds moisture well!
Hope you decide soon.

I think I'm goin to get a custom viv with 12" plinth on the front for substrate, orrrrr 8" plinth and a box. So I havn't really decided
