Advice on habitat

can anyone tell me what they think of these?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MakeTrack=true

I have an Albino Corn about 13" long presently very happy in an acrylic tank about the equivalent of a 7 gallon aquarium. I am thinking of the Exo Terra when he grows up.

I would skip it. People have wanted these before, so you can read the thread below:

I would stay clear of those for corn snake. They are made for the likes of arboreal species. There is not enough ground space IMO for an adult corn, even in the biggest size they provide.

Oh and for that price, you could do so much better. Why not buy a nice 3/4ft long vivarium!?

Yes after a good long look down of it you're right. I did start looking though and found this http://cgi.ebay.com/fish-tank-55-gal...QQcmdZViewItem


Looks pretty nice, I don't think we could get it now since I just got a new snake. I know I know I don't get it either.

I have no personal experience of these vivs but when I was buying my corn from the local reptile specialist, I was strongly advised that this type of viv was not suitable for housing corn snakes.

And thats very true... I would use these kinds of vivs for young atbs, etbs, chondros, cresties, toads and newts etc etc....

That's what I have for Tiaga. I'm very happy with it.
Not sure what I'll do when Bree and Brogan grow. Not sure I can have 3 55 gal tanks here but I do like the one I have.

Thanks-

Thanks for the help everyone. I'm a first time snake owner so I'll have more ???s for you. Like this one -
I've had my Albino Corn for a week, I just fed him a thawed fuzzie, well I put it in his cage, its been there all day and he hasn't touched it. He's crawled over it, but isn't interested in eating. He was fed the day I brought him home (last Saturday) so it has been 7 days. Is this normal? Should I leave the food in there until he decides to eat it? How long do I wait to throw it away if he doesn't eat it? What should I do? Thanks.
