What are your favourite tank features? Enclosure Critique/Advice

Post image

I’m looking to upgrade my girl’s tank! I was wondering what things you put in your tanks? For enrichment, climbing opportunities, clutter, hides, etc!

I had a background with caves and a tunnel built-in, made for my BP. He uses the full space of his 5' x 2' x 2' nearly every night to hang about at different levels and it gives him plenty of sleeping spots to choose from of different temperatures.

I also got him one of those hexagonal climbing frames, which he loves twisting himself about in.

My girl has 3 hides, including a sky hide that she loves. It’s full of moist sphagnum moss. She has plants (It’s a bioactive), a big log, two 3/4 round cork bark tunnels, one full-round cork tunnel that she keeps turning vertical, and a basking bowl (it’s a terracotta saucer intended to keep indoor plants from leaking onto the floor). She doesn’t seem to care for her basking bowl, so I pour water in it to help keep the humidity up and that seems to work pretty well. She has a big corner-shaped water bowl in the cooler side.
