viv choosing help

[H3RB]

ok so my dragon is currently in a 30"x12"x15" tank but obviously in a few months he is going to be too big for it so ive been looking at a few vivs and wondered which you guys think would be best.
here they are:

its the smaller of the 2 but has a lot of ventilation so thats quite good also i think the tank is quite good looking.

thats the larger of the 2 at 4ft but the ventilation doesnt look as good but being wood i m pretty sure it would be easy enough to make some more vents etc.

i have about a 5ft gap to fill in my front room where it can go but no bigger really so any others you guys have or use? i dont have the experience to build my own atm

Personally I prefere using wooden vivs. It means the dragons only have one window so they can feel private in their territory, but can look out if they please.
Lots of glass also means lots of reflections which can aggrivate some dragons.
I am a complete DIY-a-phobe but Ive managed to install lighting and ventillation myself in two wooden vivs without issue.

Also asthetically I much prefere the look of wooden vivs. Big glass ones are a big statement, whereas nice wooden ones can be encorperated into nearly every room which is good for the long term.

Glass wise though you can use alot of standard lizard furnature like hammocks or platforms with sucker cups. They dont stick onto wood so you always have to do a bit of altering if you want something suspended.

Just my input ^_^
