Hi!

I have found earlier on exoterra site this flexarium and now i want to make a decision on Exo Terra : Products : Flexarium
Is there anyone using any of these flexariums. I thought maybe i get at least 38gal or a bigger 65 gal with a flextray for my tree dweller geckos. Can i use it for geckos? Won't make them injuries or problem when the gecko is moving on textile material? Is there any disadvantage on it? Any idea on the topic appreciated. :)

My son has his Crestie in a 38 gal. flexarium. We have the long Flextray at the back to keep some humidity in and a DIY tray at the bottom to stop the water from spraying leaking out. His gecko seems to have no problems sticking to the sides of this enclosure. It's probably easier as it doesn't deter the gecko from sticking when wet.

Flexarium?

This is the first I've heard of a flexarium and I am reasonably conversant with Exo-Terra products; in fact I have an 18" x 18" base x 24" tall cage (all glass except for screen top).

Thanks for the posts. I decided to order one of these flexariums.
I will put bark to the sides and background of the flexarium which gives moving surface for the geckos. I acquired amazing barks from our forest :biggrin:

I'd still like to know...

I'd still like to know...what a flexarium is. I have not seen any after searching all of the Exo-Terra resources I know of.

First hit on GOOGLE ..... Exo Terra : Products : Flexarium. I have two 175 gal. flexariums for my chameleons and there used to be a 260 gal. but I think that both those sizes are discontinued now. I also have a 100 gal. that's not in use and a 38 gal. that my son's crested gecko is in.

As i saw on the catalog 2009 of exoterra the flexarium is not available in usa
I guess you can order but i am not sure that the flexarium is wide spread in usa. Maybe that's why you don't know it. It looks a good mobile solution.
I asked those who use this. Have they ever had problem with humidity because open air souliton couldn't keep wet as well as a glass terrarium.
:?

I just throw real plants in them to help with humidity. Flexariums are functional but there are more attractive options out there for sure.

Thank i guess i'll use plants too. Perhaps there are better ways but i am really fed up with glass terrariums and aquariums. Their size weight and storage them is problem for me so i just want to try this out :D

I usually spray my screen enclosures in the morning and evening and have at least the back of them covered to help with humidity ... along with plants as previously mentioned.

There are also the screen type Exo-Terra enclosures. Exo Terra : Products : Screen Terrarium I have 3 enclosures that I don't believe are Exo-Terras but the same style basically. I keep my adult cresties in these and they all seem happy and healthy and breed like crazy.

I want to put a cork flat behind of it as a background and maybe at least one of the sides. I don't want to spray the furniture :)

Hello all!
I use Exo terra Flexarium in summer outside to have natural UV-Light for my animals. I use it for my pantherchameleons. I also have the Exo-terra screen terrarium which is more stable, there I have some of my phelsumas, have one side covered with a styrofoam back and a lot of plants and twigs (bamboo and corkscrew hazelnut twigs)
