After lots of trail and error trying to create a truly escape PROOF enclosure, I think i might have succeeded. A tiny gap in my original terrarium sliding doors made me feel really insecure about putting a large Dehaani in there. Therefor i decided to ditch the sliding doors, and cut out two front panels out of plexi glass. Unfortunately i cut off too much on the sides leaving... u gessed it... a gap. Too fix this i permanently filled the gaps on each side with tec 7. Too prevent the centipede to eat its way trough the glue, I glued aliminium strips on the inside. I now consider this tank very safe. Still i am worried that the dehaani somehow will manage to rip of the aluminum and eat trough the tec 7.
I dont know if im overthinking this. The gap was 3mm so i dont know if the centipede could get through anyway.
The top lid is not of my concern. 4 bolts, a lego lock + 2 two 1 kg weight plates. As you see in the video I pull with a great force to bend the lid, more than any centipede would manage too push. And when it bends, it dont leave any gaps for the centipede to squeeze trough.
So how would you guys rate the safety of this enclosure?
