Default Hmm what could possibly fit into...

a 14" length ways x 5" ways x 10" height ways?

I did ask my mom if i had the tank space could i have hissing cockroaches but she went very pale and then a clear no soon followed

So i was wondering anything else that could possibly fit into it? not cockroaches however because my mom most certainly does not like them she just accepts the fact that i went to the BTS today and returned with a T xD

Edit:: here be a pichat im talking about

5" wide is a little too small for a T IMO, otherwise you end up with a T in a shoebox.

Get some sticks or something, or perhaps use it as a breeder tank for locusts.

[Edit] Tbh, IMO, if nothing comes to mind immediately, then dont use it at all. Theres no point buying something just for the sake of it.

Had ideas my mom just refused allowing me to have them, and my dads already in her bad books for getting me my T so yea he's not getting anything unless my mom says yes to it.

As for ventalation, if you look closely to the pic, there is a gap between the lid and the actual sides, and that goes all the way round, its about a 5 mm gap

Thats probably not enough ventilation tbh.

That looks like a small terrarium and not designed for inverts (they are for plants...a whole different ball game).

You're better off buying a cheap plastic opaque tub of a decent size (i.e about £5 - 12" x 12" x8+" or so is commonly found) and melting small holes into it for ventilation. You can then design the ventilation around the needs of the pet rather than making the pet fit the viv as such.
