Nice enclodure you built there. I'm also looking to build one out of a 8x3x2 stock tank. My savy is still small, but growing really fast. I was thinking of building a 8x3x4 cage, so I can use the 2ft of stock tank for substrate, and have another 2ft above that. I noticed your cage is as tall as the stock tank itself, with 1ft of substrate. I understand height isn't as important as width or length. I'M JUST TRYING TO DECIDE if I should go with a cage set-up like yours, or spend a lot more time building another 2ft above the stock tank. Is it necessary? Is it worth my time? Is it really necessary to house a single monitor with 2 ft of substrate? Will a 2ft high cage be large enough to house a full grown male? These are just some questions I had on my mind. Any tips, will help. This will be my first time building a cage. Thanks.

Se7en,
