Hi all,

Well, we've made the decision to get ourselves a Royal so the next step is to kit ourselves out with all the equipment. Can anyone reccomend a good on line supplier for vivs, equipment etc?

I've been looking at the Swell Reptile site which seems to have a lot of reasonably priced gear. Anyone used them before?

Thanks!!

I have used both surrey pet supplies and value vivariums and no complaints from either.

One thing i will say is that if you are getting one of the new vivexotic vivs i have heard that the glass runners/vents (its both in one if that makes sense) have sharp edges on the inside of the viv. Its only what i have heard, not been anywhere to check it out yet

1.1 normal royal, sully, silver
0.1 pinstripe royal, penny
1.1 pastel royal, lars, clover

Really? Mine doesn't. Although I suppose it's few years old now.

When I sealed the viv with aquarium sealent I sealed the sliders as well, where they overlap the inside of the viv wall. So maybe you could just do that to smooth them off a bit?

I've used triple 8, Surrey Pet Supplies and Swell and all have been just as good for me. No complaints.

Just me and my zoo.

the issue with surrey pet supplies is they no longer deliver heavier items.

iv never noticed any issues with vivexotic vivs, I think they are the best and cheapest on the market.
