I only own AP so I cant say much about boaphile other then I hear they tend to sag over time.



If you heat your reptile room you will have allot less problems then I did. I purchased the heat cord version and with the room kept in the low 60s heat cord couldn't keep up. So I had to go with a RHP which does the job. I also used a 2" blue board under the cage for added insulation. The ventilation in these cages is little to none, however it is easy enough to add more if needed. The window tends to stick sometimes and it takes a weekly cleaning just to keep the acrylic clean/sliding. I wish I purchased the longer cage for my guy but for now this will have to do.



Here is 2 year old pic.
