I hope this does not offend you, but I think you should keep the monitor a while in a normal cage. I say that because it seems you do not have much experience.



First off, your pond will not work, unless you hire or become a full time worker.



The monitor will fill the cage with dirt as well as dung.



Your cage has far to much mechanicals and will be a nightmare, and its not needed.



So I think if you use a normal cage for awhile, your questions will be answered, then you can decide what direction you want to take.



For instance, deep dirt is what keeps the humidity up. Venting normally drys out cages. If you let your deep dirt dry out, your cage becomes a dust bowl, etc etc etc.



In a nutshell, cages with filters do not work and are a pain in the hind end. Dump and fill is what it will end up, after the filter and pumps fail, so thats a great place to start.



A cage, of whatever size, needs very little venting, so there is really no need for fans and humidifiers, etc etc.



Ok, enough, what do you think?
