oh my gosh i am sooooooooooooooo unbelievably lucky ! im not sure if anyone recalls but i was saying i was going to move my king to a 35 and my corn to a 30 gallon from 20 longs. well this weekend i finally got to doing it as the past week i figured out temps and built the shelving for them and picked up some suction plants to go on the walls they look really nice but i didnt check the most important thing before i left, the screen top... well seeing as i picked it up from the store saying it was for a 35 i figured it was ok and the 30 gallon is the same length just higher then the 20's so i figured it would fit too. i got home just in time to walk in my comp/herp room to find my king half way out of his cage!!! he must of heard me comign and knew he was doing something wrong as he went back in quickly lol i fixed it now, nice and tight on both lol did this ever give me a scare though luckily i came home early from a friends otherwise my king and possibly corn would have been gone. i should have fed before i left but i figured cuz i moved them to a new cage it might be a bit of stress? so i waited til sunday to feed them instead of saturday they both seem to love the new cages tho heh showed me to always check the screen top before anything, usually i do but i was in a rush
