Default Distances between Stacking tables

Hi all

As you may or may not know i have been researching into bunk style tables and have decided that this is the route i am taking to get some more torts into my life

A question for those who have these stacked tables I would like to know what distance you leave between each table? I am only having two tables so can be generous with space as long as i can reach into the top one to clean it. Also the tables are to be kept in my lounge not shed....i don't know if this changes anything????

Many thanks
Jodie

I'm not sure of the ‘standard/ one size fits all’ answer but make sure that there is enough room for your lighting and heat spot to be at safe/ recommended distances from the substrate, whilst also giving good levels of UV and creating the right bask and ambient temps.

I put Dorothys (top) table on supports from ikea, which i think are about just under 80cm tall. Normans little table on the bottom of the picture is on rubber doormats on the floor. This gives plenty of room for lots of air to circulate
