Hi there, Im getting some bhp soon. After they get a bit bigger (out of the small enclosure), what size enclosure should be big enough to house each. I'm actually building some enclosures into a wall of my house, but before I start, I would like to know how big I need to make them.
Your help in this would be appreciated.
Cheers

Ive got about 2m of length to play with. I was goin to put three enclosures stacked on each other but Im still designing as to make it look most effective.
When I start the project, I'll post step by steps |

I will keep and eye out for picks when you get it going.
BHPs are the best.
