Hi all, got that sized RUB and was wandering if it was big enough to keep a salamander/newt/fbt in? have a heatmat which i can use so do not need to worry about that, can get hold of eco earth which i am told salamanders love to bury in(tiger salamanders, although i know this is not big enough i dont think? Thanks for any advice.John

i have 2 tigers in a 18x18x18 inch exo terra, and they are fine, although may need to upgrade if they get a lot bigger, but to be honest they dont really do anything, just burrow and eat, so i would think your size is perfect if the 26inches is floor space and not height?

what is the floor dimentions? il be able to tell u if u can keep tigers. i assume its 12x26 and the 16 inches is the height? is that right? if so then its a thin long viv, which one tiger would be very happy in, not sure about anymore than that, u should ask Sean K, he is the only other tiger owner i know of on this forum, he may help.

if on the other hand that its 16x24 floor dimentions then 2 tigers would be more than happy in there.

any advice u need dont hesitiate to pm me, im happy to help.

Laura
