So I've been thinking about building a new enclosure for my Mali's, but space is just too limited in the apt. right now. I am looking into possibly buying a house soon, so I figured why not kill time at work designing a nice big enclosure.
Dimensions (inside) will be 6' x 27" x 24"
What does everything think of this design? The top enclosure has a hinged hood (the front 1/3 of the top and the 6" tall front opens for easy access)
The bottom has a 8" flap for access.
As far as heat, I'm not 100% sure how I want to do this. Currently I have a48" enclosure with a hood that holds the standard heat bulbs and a 48" florescent uvb. I could retro-fit this into one of the enclosures or save it and keep my current tank as a spare. My Mali's would be moving into one of the 2 enclosures here, and I would like to get either a pair of Ornates or Saharan for the other. I am thinking about switching over to MBV's with the new enclosures, but any ideas of how to keep electrical cost down would be great.
