    Vertical Vivarium, Anyone Remember This One

    So, this project got put on the back burner, as I acquired more animals, and decided to fine tune my currently occupied tanks before this one.

    However, it was always there (even had it set up in my room, like a constant reminder...Finish Me!, lol)

    Building An Arboreal Vivarium

    And though when started, the idea was to house tree frogs, I eventually started looking into other animals, and was very much harboring the idea of an Amazon Tree Boa.

    While at the Havre De Grace Reptile Expo, I got a great deal on a Captive bred Amazon Tree Boa.
    Garden phase, though she looks like she could almost have been a Halloween phase.
    So now I have an animal for the Vivarium.
    Hopefully once she's settled in I'll have some pictures. Just thought I'd update, and get this thread back "out there".

    Is a 29 gal big enough for an Amazon?
    I thought they got big..?

    Wait.
    Nevermind.
    I was thinking Emerald.
    But I could be wrong about how big they get too...

    How big to the Amazons and Emeralds get? x]

    Emeralds get both longer, and thicker than the Amazons.
    Emeralds seem to average out at about 6', though 7' is not unheard of, and I've actually heard of them getting larger, up to 9' in the amazon basin.
    Amazons get from 4'-5' long, and stay rather skinny, though I have heard of larger animals in captivity.
