Have you ever used this Co.?

[drache]

i have several of their cages actually - just because the pricing is the most reasonable I've found for what I want and i can pick up at an expo within reasonable driving distance, which only leaves the problem that i don't have a car
the people are very nice and helpful, and the customization options are endless
to add sliding doors to any terrarium is $50, but you end up getting a better tank in many other ways, because the workmanship on some of their basic stuff is soso, and when you add sliding doors, everything else gets upgraded a little bit too
saw somebody pick up a rimless tank at an expo - really beautiful
that 6'x2'x2' tank with sliding doors i got from them is heavy - very heavy
i don't think i'd ever want to get anything as big as that made of glass ever again, unless it comes apart into manageable pieces

I've not used those ones, they look a bit basic and tacky to me. i'd prefer a wooden viv over that one I think. I know in the US you like glass viv's but here in europe wood seems to be the one to have.

The proper vision vivs though are pretty good, i have 4 in total (all used ones) they do the job well enough. Not much bad to say though the lip above the glass is enough for snakes to hide in, one of my sand snakes is always falling off there. Not too bad with what i keep but for venomous species it's not ideal.

thanks, Mike; useful feedback
basic and tacky is pretty much what i can do right now
i've neither the time nor the craftmanship to make decent wooden ones, and buying them is not in my budget any time soon either
some day . . .

I could build you a nice habitat but I do agree it would not be cost effective for me to ship it to you.

And these collapsible vivs seem to look right.

No input from the company yet

I did like the fact you could get a seperator to split the viv (from the first link) seems handy to me
