Hi:

My Opinion about Aquariums:

I do not think it's wise to keep Venomous Snakes in Aquariums for many reasons, all of them involve safety. The whine I hear all of the time, "Real cages are too expensive" does not cut it at all. People have no problem spending top dollar for the snakes but really try to skimp on safely housing that expensive snake. When I add a snake to my collection most of the time the "housing" for the animal costs far more than what I spent on the snake. Typically $200 to $300 per enclosure, depending on the enclosure & configuration. People, you can't put a price on safety nor can you take back an accident once it's happened.
