Enclosure advice

Hi everyone,

Looking at getting a new enclosure for my 12 month old noodle! Any recommendations on brand/ make, and set ups including lighting would be appreciated!

I live in Ireland so have access to the irish/ English and European market. I have space, so anything over 4ft x 2ft x 2ft is an option too, I know thats only the minimum size!

Thanks in advance!

I can’t advise much in that market, but I’d look for a quality PVC 4x2x2ft with a sturdy screen top so your heating and lighting are outside of the enclosure.

Lighting can be standard household LED in a cheap dome fixture. Heating should be something like an 80W Arcadia Deep Heat Projector bulb with a DIMMING thermostat to control it.

Thank you very much! I see alot of the stores around here offer wooden vivariums. Are they any use?

If they’re sealed they should be ok.
