Default Would this work as a Viv?

IKEA | Beds | Single bed frames | ODDA | Headboard with storage compartment

I was looking around and I found this
Would it be okay for about 2 Adult Leos
It matches my room perfect and looks perfect but thought I should ask some people who actually know about this

ofcourse I would add the glass and vents.
Substrate. Hopefully it will be able to hold tiles.
I don't know

This is just a thought atm

What do you guys think?

yeah, it looks pretty cool.
but it would be cheaper to buy a vivarium that size because getting the glass cut might be expensive.

other than that, it would look real original.
go for it xD

Yeah I've actually just got a 3ft viv for £25
so this would be twice the price but I think would be well worth it because no one else would have one

if you have tile in there and a stat it would be fine to have it inside, i wouldnt recommend it inside on a loose substrate or papertowl incase they get directly on to the mat and burn themselves..

regarding the glass, perspex could be an option maybe, much cheeper and you can cut it yourself if you have a jig saw!
