That sounds good. Are you going to get it made? Or will it be a shop bought one?

4x2x2 is fine for a coastal or slightly bigger if you prefer. 4x2x4 is pretty large and will require a fair bit of heating for the cooler months if you are not brumating them.

That's about $550 AUD. Not bad for that size.

You would probably need both a heat lamp and a heat mat to ensure minimum temps are kept. Is your house centrally heated?
