I'm thinking of setting up a nice display tank for a pair of Standings. 2 things would sway me away from getting them though, and I'd be interested in hearing your opinions/experiences:

1. in a melamine tank with glass doors, would the standings be constantly clinging to the glass and pooping on it? I've seen grandis tanks in pet shops where there is crap ALL OVER the glass. That would really be inconvenient to keep clean.

2. how skittish are they? I just got rid of a desert iguana because he was constantly escaping even when I only opened the glass door a crack. Little bugger would wait for me to openthe cage and - VAVOOM!
