I use fluorescent lighting on all of them right now and would prefer to keep doing so. I would like two light sockets in each as well. So, perhaps going to 4'6"? or maybe even 5'? I just want to give them the best sized habitat that I can provide.



Generally, as long as it would look nice enough that I would want to display it in my living room, it would work. Most of my furniture is a lighter wood and that would look nice but even if it was black or cream colored it would work(even a mixture of wood and color-yeah, I'm indecisive . . . sorry). I'm just not sure what type of wood would look best and last too. It is really important to have easy access for maintenance(sliding doors on front seem to be easiest?)



As for the lighting, I've never used MVBs wasn't sure if I should try them or not. I have been mostly using Zoo Med bulbs(tight beam for basking w/Uro and Beardies and regular for skink).



I have some friends that might be able to cut the wood(or help me do so) but I may end up having someone cut for me.
