I made this 10 gal desert viv for a juvi cal king.



It was set up for a little under a year and never "cleaned". When I broke it down I found a really cool network of tunnels as well as a few shed skins and some poop in the rocks.







The tank has a layer of large gravel, a screen, a layer of fine gravel, and then 2-3 inches of dirt. This worked fine for a desert setup but with a tropical set up you must have some way to drain water out of the bottom. Either a drilled tank or a hidden tube going to the bottom so that you can siphon water off.
