>>thank you , I thought about the plexy but wasn't sure how to make it natural looking. And the size of aquarium for the basilisk perm. home will be a 100 gal aquarium? 60"Lx24"Hx24"D with a 2ft.rise On top of tank, for climbing, just want to try to make a nice temp home that will be close to what lifetime home will look like. The 55 gal will be more like a pratice run.That way perm. home should(hopefully)look even better. Thank you again



No offense but it has always been my position that aquaria are for fish and enclosures are for reptiles. I think you could build something much better and cheaper than 100gal glass aquarium.



When you account for lights and 24" deep tank cleaning becomes difficult. I don't even like cleaning 24" deep fish tanks, let alone a reptile tank. IMO front opening enclosures are far easier to clean and you don't need to remove a light hood to clean them.



But it's your money, time, and collection.



Good Luck
