I am really new to this frogging stuff, so please forgive me for the questions i'm sure you've answered many of times. I did a search looking for the answer but did not find anything.
Anyway.. My question(s) is, what are the pros and cons between using a normal aquarium, vs an exo terra? I am familiar with exo terra's design from researching them for chameleon use. How do you get enough ventilation in a normal aquarium? I read a thread on here talking about using small computer fan (also done this with screen cages) but i'm not sure how you'd go about it with glass?? Now are fans necessary, or just one way to go about ventilation? I do not plan on drilling my viv, due to being a bit freaked about doing it and plan on having an easy access pipe to siphon water out of. Especially if i get an exo terra. Dont feel like making a 200 + - mistake!
