I was just wondering if anyone has any pics of a dentata enclosure? I have an adult male, looking to make him a better home

sorry no photos, but i have mine in a 55gal molded pond. its on a raised platform so i can use my magnum canister filter on the floor. they like a lot of swimming space, but not real deep water. kinda like mud turts, walking on the bottom of the water they like to be able to stick there noses out to breath. my male loves all kinds of aquatic plants and makes a big mess of them. he haas a basking place in the middle and its a kind of thing thats raised up so he can swim under it and all over the pond. but its big enough so he can walk around on it too. he doesnt like a warm light so i just use a reptisun 5.0 that doesnt heat him up. hes real healthy. he had shell rot when i got him but the filter keeps his water real clean and hes all healed up now
