Tank Topper? Empty Tank Topper?

Post by Winter Moose Sun 25 Mar 2018, 7:44 pm

Currently Moose is about 6 months old, and I don’t have a lot of extra floor space for a tank upgrade. I’ve been looking into good tank toppers for a 10 gallon Ear wiggle , but I’m not sure which ones have the best features and correct bar spacing. Also, the ones I’ve seen are 35-40 dollars, are there cheaper options? Do you recommend a different upgrade? Can anyone give advice/links?

Thanks all.

I forgot to add, I have an old critter trail that I could attach to the tank. I suppose that’s another option but I’m not sure if that would make it more difficult for me to feed/clean.

Any advice or options would be great.

Well, I got a 20 gallon tank upgrade for my mouse a few weeks ago - which also came with air holes, oddly. So he can enjoy his space without any problems.
I definitely suggest you get a 10 or 20 gallon, but I don't have any insight on the right tank toppers.
My tank was in the 30 dollar range, and its a 20 gallon, so it was quite cheap. I got mine at Petsmart, if that helps.
I do think you should add the crittertrail to it. I myself have a few old crittertrail cages, and the parts work well with a tank, believe it or not. I've used a extra accessory kit to make an underground tunnel for my mouse under the bedding, so the crittertrail definitely is useful!

tank toppers dont really add to the floorspace of the cage, so getting a larger tank is definitly a better option in this case. tank toppers only really provide extra climbing space and ventilation, not much else. i probably would avoid using the crittertrail if this was me, and would just use it as a travel cage, but this is just my opinion. i dont really know much about tank toppers but in my opinion a bigger tank or cage is a better option Smile
