    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Hey everyone,

I’m in the process of building an ackies enclosure and wanted to see what other keeps have. Size, decor and any other unique setups out there.
Thanks to everyone that shares!

Unfortunately the number of active users in any particular forum ebs and flows. If you do find some good youtube videos to reference I suggest posting the link in the thread so others wanting to build their own can benefit from your search. Good luck.

I saw the bioactive set up but it didn’t tickle my fancy. It’s not really the type of habitat an ackies would be found in. It’s more for personal appeal than recreating an environment.
I’ve kept uros before and they have a similar habitat as ackies, so I’ll probably go with that. I’ll share if I can find old photos.

Something like this, but more hides that are tighter and lower to the ground and a few more branches for them to climb on.
This enclosure was 5.5ft long x 32in deep x 30in tall.
Built this one myself and loved it. Only problem was it was heavy.
