Which is best for a Hamster, a Tank Topper or Screen Cover?
Apr 15, 2008 by Bond | Posted in Rodents
I'm planning on getting two dwarf hamsters, and I was wondering if getting a tank topper or a screen cover was best for an aquarium. A tank topper gives extra levels for you hamster to explore, but would I have to put bedding in it and is it worth the money? I found a screen cover at walmart online for $6.44 and the shipping was another 6 dollars. The screen cover was made especially for gerbils and hamsters and is a wired cover for the top of the aquarium. The good thing about this cover is that it has 2 wholes at the top so you can add tubes and all.
Thanks for your tips. Do you know if I should add bedding into the tank topper or just let it stay bare.
Which topper would you recommend?
If you don't recommend the aquarium, what kind of cage will be best for hamsters? By the way I have two cats so I don't know if a wired cage would suit it.
I suggest to buy the ebay one. If you have more than one hammie (recommended) then you should attach another wheel to the topper and maybe a home made hammock? Making hammock is easy.

Mote's aquarium features everything from the cute-and-cuddly (puffer fish and seahorses) to the strange and mysterious (sharks and anglerfish).
Alternatively, try an aquarium: London's, again, is astonishing if crowded, while the Blue Reef in Portsmouth is very impressive.
