Wouldn't a glass viv be tricky to use, with regards to temperature and humidity needed for the BRB's?
It'd definitely be cool though!

I miss my BRB's

I have a 3x2x3 glass viv that my big mangroves in and to be honest its an absolute nightmare to keep warm. Its lined with thick cork to help insulate it and I'm toying with the idea of using 1 inch thick polystyrene sheet sandwiched around it on the rear and both sides and base. This one viv on its own consumes almost as much power as the rest put together.
