EDIT - A NOTE FROM THE ADMINISTRATOR:

This thread is, for all intents and purposes, spam. It is spam that is relevant to our subject, but it is still an unsolicited advertisement. It isn't fair for people to advertise on our site for free, especially when they don't own up to the fact that they are the ones making a product. Until the poll closes in ten days, I am breaking this link. After that, I will do what you guys decide to do. If anyone wants to go to the video in the meantime, they will just have to do it the harder way.

those tanks are pretty nice, but you could easily make one yourself in a weekend or two for half the price if not less. but if you have more money than time, they're great.

Welcome to the forum, bonjovisfan and kylehca! "bump" is an intresting choice for a first post...?

I am divided on whether or not to remove this thread. The OP is the guy from the video and this post is spam. The cages are nice, but this is not the place for people to get free advertising. I suspect that the second person with the "bump" post is most likely either the same guy with a different email address or someone affiliated with the company...

So, what do you guys think? Should I leave it? Or should I delete it and ban them for spamming? It might be on-topic for this forum, but it's still spam...

when i first read this i thought it was spam but i didnt want to be rude if it wasnt. perhaps an e-mail should be sent to the company making them aware that this is taking place. idk...just a thought.

I did, and he apologized and told me to go ahead and take it down. It is spam, but it's at lest somewhat relevant spam.

I just scrolled up, and it seems that he went ahead and deleted it himself.

The cages are pretty nice, and I may decide to post a link to it myself. The idea behind the wooden ones is quite nice, and would be good for people to see that want to build their own with wooden framing.

soooo... other than soliciting a product (which should have been done in the marketplace). what use can the op be to us? i'd want to see how beneficial a relationship could be and consider things from there.

Yeah, that's what I told him; contribute to the forum and then we'll be more willing to let you post links, and hey, feel free to include on in your signature line. He said alot of other forums had asked him to post the link. As far as I'm concerned, he was trying to get free advertising. Then he comes back and edits his post, but doesn't contribute to the site at all...

As I mentioned I would love to contribute. I am sorry to offend anyone on this forum. As was also mentioned I was asked by other forums to post, and found this forum by accident as I didn't even know it existed (great forum by the way, I really like the pictures that some of the members have posted, beautiful!) and I didn't realize it was against your rules. I am glad you guys like our units and would be happy to answer any questions about them or offer my opinion on anything else. I have posted on many other forums, especially regarding aquatic turtles, which I don't believe is a topic here. I love natural terrariums, especially a nice established one with moss growing all over, and some of the pictures on this forum are just awesome and inspiration for me. Thank you.
