I got a 20 long from a guy at work for $15. He used it as a sump so I know it holds water! But I am going to use it for some lucky garters soon. I bought some lights that will take up to a 60 watt bulb but I plan to use a head pad and thermistat for heat. The lights are CF bulbs. All the plants from Family dollar (all for $5) except for the middle one it is exo terra. I have 2 hides made out of 1 exo terra large that I cut in half and put on either end. I am going to put the water dish / swimming pool in the middle. Let me know what you think.
The top I made from 1/2 inch plywood still need to finish a door/access hatch and I think I might try to use liquid nails to permantly attach it to the aquarium....or might use the clips somehow that I have. I routered the edges just for fun.

Now all I need is a snake or two...lol.photo2.jpgphoto.jpg
