Gettin 2 new leos. Vision 211 or 221?

Omnivorous Nov 28, 2008 10:48 PM

I put a deposit down for 2 leo females. Im off tomorrow or sunday to get the cage. I am thinking of switching from glass terrariums to Vision Cages because you can stack them and everytime I get a new reptile I have to find a different coffie table, dressor top, or something to put the glass terrarium on. This way if I get something new in the future I can just stack it on the tanks I already have. Anyways I am tryign to decide between the 211 and 221. The 221 is a little longer and wider and not as high. I think that would be better but that model you cant put a light on. I dont use a light for heat but I do use a little 15 watt red light for a couple hours to watch my leo. I dont know what the light capability is on the 211 but do you think I should just forget about the light and go for the one with a little bigger floor area? 211 is 24" Long x 22" Wide x 14" Tall and the 221 is 28" Long x 24" Wide x 12" Tall. 221 you cant put a light sourse in it. 211 you can.

i'd go with the bigger one - if you are doing two leos you want long and wide

Yeah thats what I decided to get. Picked up the 221. Its not quite as long as a 20L tank but its a lot wider so I can fit enough hides in it and they will be spaced out so they arent cramed next to eachother. Going to the home depot to get some tiles for substrate. Should get the 2 girls next week.
