I have a 6' Vision cage that I made into an atrox enclosure. I keep an adult trio in it, and it is very naturalistic. On the heated side, I have a mixture of sand, pea gravel and rocks set up in a den-like manner in which they can bask from above. Towards the middle of the area, I have some river rocks, in the form a small river bed to cross over into an area that has a large water bowl on cypress mulch and the bowl is surrounded by moss. Shredded redwood and bark with a large log for a hide on the same side, and couple of faux cacti on the sand/pea gravel. The end result is a nice looking setup with a complete array of environments for the animals. I haven't had any problems at all with it, and if I knew how to post pics on the forum I would!
