For an adult? That won't do.

Oh. How about 6x3x3?

I like 8*4*4 for adults with at least an 18" substrate dam. If you can get a PVC or ABS enclosure built to those specs it will work fine as long as the material is thick enough to support the substrate.

I'm about to pick one! Please tell me what to get!
6x3x3 $400 in melamine
7x3x3 $450 in melamine
8x3x3 $500 in melamine

Below is what you need. It's a stronger cage and holds humidity better. The above cages( melamine) might not last with your reptile. This is why the semi elite is recommended.
6x3x3 $550 in semi elite
7x3x3 $600 in semi elite
8x3x3 $650 in semi elite

If those are your choices, then go 8x3x3. Melamine is quite heavy, I had a BoaMaster made of melamine and had to seal it all up. Worked well but weighed a whole lot.

I would also say 8x3x3 as well. Ask them what the semi-elite is made of and why it is better.

Can't I seal melamine with something? What is the main problem with it?

You can seal the edges/seams of the melamine enclosures with silicone. Problem is, if it isn't sealed completely or the animal gets to it and scratches some of the silicone out, moisture will get into the wood and destroy it very quickly.

Not sure what the semi-elites are made of. I had my enclosure from BoaMaster and donated it to an exotic reptile store when my blue passed away. I sealed it all up and worked fine for the time I had it. It's still in great condition and is housing a burmese python (their store pet) now.
