Part One: Setup
Pros or cons aside, Exo-terra is a popular choice for invert keepers. I have an issue with their lack of terrestrial style homes, as well as their use of cheap screen for the lid. The following is my conversion, where I tip a Nano on its back. This makes for an enclosure that opens from the top, and can be filled to the top with substrate (if you so desire).
Using an Exo-terra Nano (8"x8"x12") that I bought at an expo for $36, and some pre-cut acrylic (many guides online for how to cut acrylic)
