Basking Area...?

I have kept Common snappers for several years. I offered my 1st snapper a basking area for a few months when he was a hatchling and he never used it. So ever since then I stopped giving them the option. I have seen full grown adults basking out in the local ponds. Does anyone have them in there indoor setups, and if so are they used often? Ive been thinking about providing one.



Thanks,

Chris
