customised enclosures (pics)

hey guys, so in a substrate thread i mentioned i use a pebble mesh tile (mesh squares with round river pebbles attached). with newspaper underneath these allow for easy removal and a wash, replacement of newspaper and presto! i had alot of interest so here they are:
(ill also enclude pictures of my subaquatic 8X2X2footer, my 3X3hX2foot anglehead vivarium, and of course the snake enclosure!

so.... here you go!
the flooring:

That flooring sure as hell beats using that fake grass crap Very nice!! Do you have replacement flooring pebbles to put in while the other is being cleaned?

i do have replacement but i find as it is 4 tiles (comes in 4 packs, different stones available and sizes) i rarely have more than one tile soiled, so i just remove that one, wipe it down with a disinfectant wipe...and change the newspaper under it (generally happens once a week or 10days)

heres a close up of the features, the globes above are on thermostat and dont omitt light, they heat the ground pebbles very nicely to create the warm rock a stimsoni is used to!

and heres one of my stimsoni elvis:
(if you look hard enough youll notice him on the log of the first photo in my second post above)

they are some bloody ripper set ups, its great to see simplicity with good looks, how do you go about cleaning, does everything come out easy enough??
its a pity you didn't take pics as you were putting it together, i'd love to see some ideas for building my own.
good job mate

Cheers
Andrew
