So I originally bought an 8x8x12 exo terra to keep a future avic avic in. Though now I have changed my mind and am going to purchase a more suitable enclosure for one. I still have the exo terra around however, what would be a good animal to possible house in there? Thanks for any suggestions!

Exo-terra will work just fine for avic, just FYI. Just be sure to replace mesh with drilled acrylic with plenty of ventilation and you’re good to go. Other than that it would work great for juvenile chameleons or reptiles of the such.

You could probably get some kind of mantis or stick bug or maybe a leaf bug? 😃

I wouldn't keep any vertebrate in that enclosure, just not big enough

I was just commenting this because you posted this on the "not so spineless wonders" forum :).
Yeah I posted that here initially but after looking around for a while I realized that it definitely won't fit any invertebrates. May consider removing my post now :smirk:. I do still appreciate the feedback though!

I have 4 8x8x12 exo terra terrariums and I love them. One for a tailess whipspider, one has 2 Arizona Bark scorpions, one has 2 Florida Bark scorpions, and the last holds A. avicularia. I replaced the metal screening with plexiglass for the T and it has worked out great. I recommend them highly.
