Enclosure Design Help

Hey all,
In the next couple of weeks i am planning on starting a new tank for my diamond python.
i no that diamonds like being high up so i am going to make a tank that is higher then it is longer.

And was wondering if anyone has any photots of theirs or a designs or any links to a design for one (((yes i did search in the wikki.)))



One more thing, i got my new 6mnth old water python the other day and am looking to make a new tank for him and was wondering if they prefer longer tanks or higher ?!?!?!!?




thankz in advance.
Jayyy

Definitely go for a tall enclosure for a diamond, the other added advantage to this is the thermal gradient you can create by having the heating up the top and letting the bottom get as cold as possible, very important for diamonds.

For water pythons it would probably be better going for a longer enclosure for the converse, you wouldn't want the cold end to get too cold.
