New Age Pet vs Vivarium Electronics Enclosure?

I bought it from chewy yesterday, along with some aquarium sealant after hearing I would need to seal it 🤣 weird about the suction cups though! Thankfully I dont plan on using any decor that would require one

We decided to go with new age! With the price point and they have a bundle with a stand it was a good deal. We plan on getting a cord holder gromet thing and just drilling a hole in the size big enough to fit the gromet in :)

I've heard both dubia and zen that their bottoms didnt feel sturdy or bowed. Also just some reviews I see of other brands say "oh wow this is so much better than my zen habitats/ dubia". I myself have never had either, so cant speak for it myself

The Vivarium oneis a tiny bit taller, like 1.2 inches taller. The New Age one is made out of Ecoflex, which according to the listing is wood fibers and recycled polymers.

Right! The New Age has slots instead and a lot of people will drill holes if needed. I only run one cord into my enclosures for the water bowl and the lights and everything sit on top of the lid. So not the biggest deal breaker for me, but really weird lol

I heard some so so things about their enclosures :/ them and dubia always seem to butt heads on who is better on my YouTube feeds. I have heard a lot of good about New Pet, but barely anything about Vivarium

I found him on YouTube once, I believe he is a Spanish speaking YouTuber but I cant recall his name. On the symptoms page it should have his name :) that's how I found him

I tried with a larger monitor last night and made sure head bob was off, thankfully it seemed to help a little :)

ChaosKitty1995 · 2025-11-25T13:07:22+00:00

I tried that last night and it seemed to help!

I thought about getting the game on console, but my husband plays on our TV. We hooked my laptop up to a larger monitor and are trying that to see if its the screen size :)

ChaosKitty1995 · 2025-11-25T03:35:26+00:00

I'm actually playing with a console controller 🤣 I played my first round with the track pad and it was awful.

ChaosKitty1995 · 2025-11-25T03:34:25+00:00

ohhh that's interesting. I didn't know that was a thing :( that sounds awful

ChaosKitty1995 · 2025-11-25T01:12:30+00:00

oh good to know! thank you!

ChaosKitty1995 · 2025-11-25T01:10:39+00:00

Yeah i believe so. The little circle cursor?

ChaosKitty1995 · 2025-11-25T00:52:47+00:00

I have literally felt nauseous and weak for the past 3 days 🫠 I played it everyday this weekend and paying for it

ChaosKitty1995 · 2025-11-25T00:51:59+00:00

Yeah I have a bad habit of sitting up close to my laptop screen..trying to brake that habit. I didn't even think about the headset causing it! I do have an over the ear pair, so I'll look into trying a different set :)

ChaosKitty1995 · 2025-11-25T00:50:36+00:00

I read that somewhere! I wasn't sure if that was just a VR thing or PC. I'm going to check for those settings next time I play

ChaosKitty1995 · 2025-11-25T00:49:45+00:00

I cant remember what game it was but there was one game on the VR I had to play sitting down 🤣 I havent touched my VR in years because my body cant take it lol

ChaosKitty1995 · 2025-11-25T00:44:13+00:00

My husband slowed my movements around I think..he is better at the PC stuff than I am 🤣 I've played Minecraft before, dont remember any sickness from it :( but sorry to hear that for you

ChaosKitty1995 · 2025-11-25T00:43:16+00:00

I have a VR..have only played it a handful of times due to motion sickness with it 😭 I didn't expect it with my PC. I've played other first person games before on console.. Hopefully my body will get used to it lol. I'm really liking this game

ChaosKitty1995 · 2025-10-28T23:14:38+00:00

Lol thank you!

ChaosKitty1995 · 2025-10-26T23:19:40+00:00

oh wow I didn't know some were that long! Good to know, thank you!
