Default Fop cages & tubes- desperate for advice!

Hi all, i'm a new member here. i have two syrians Buttercup and Barnaby (they live separately). I am new to the world of hamsters and desperately need some advice from all you hamster masters. I have had trouble with cages, buttercup has already had 3. had a bad moment when Pets at Home sold me the the Olimpia by ferplast, my poor hamsters nearly had a nervous breakdown in this cage, terrible cage.
I have settled on a Fop Dixie for buttercup. I like the cage but i don't think it is bit enough for her, she is a very active hamster and loves climbing and the tubes. I want to extend and join to another cage.
Can anyone help with whether any other brands of tubes are compatible with fops? Or any good shops that sell fob tubes.

All help would be fantastic, bit lost in the world of hamsters already!!

Welcome
You can get the tube adaptors here and the tubes I think. This cage door fitting fits quite a few doors so you may be able to use it to attach to other types of cage.

Fop tubes are compatible with habitrail and crittertrail The FOP are a tiny bit wider, so are a snug fit in the connectors, but don't pop apart.

Hi and welcome I cant help with the tubes I'm afriad but hopefully the other reply have helped you with that.

We all feel a bit lost to begin with so dont worry. You could take a look around the forum especially at our 'review' and 'show us your cages' sections, if you are needing a little inspiration
