As hamsters are gnawing animals you should provide wooden blocks or treats, they also enjoy chewing the cardboard tube from inside a toilet roll.
Hamsters and gerbils should be housed in cages rather than glass enclosures such as aquariums, as cages provide much more adequate ventilation for your pet.

Hamsters can learn to be very naughty and bite just because they do not want to come out.
