I found this picture on an Austin gardening blog and it has become the inspiration for what I want my spotted tank to look like this spring. I plan to put it in a flowerbed along my deck where it will face east and receive only morning sun, to provide basking, but also to keep the water and turtles from overheating in the afternoon. Obviously, I won't have the water as high as in this picture, probably only a foot and a half deep at the most, and I will also construct a secure lid so birds and predators can't get to the turtles. What does everyone think?
