finally got pics of my new herp room.
it houses the gecko, sandswimmers, beardies, turtles and floor space & an enclosure for when the beardies are bigger. 
sandswimmers 
turning right- top half of beardie enclosure when they are bigger (i didnt have enough space in the room to take 1 pic of the whole tank) 
middle/bottom half of the beardie tank- 
gecko enclosure (looking to the left-side of the room) 
top view of turtle tank -  
not a very good pic but oh well- 
female sandswimmer- 
male sandswimmer looking through the hollow log-

Great setup you got there.

Subscriber | Join Date: Dec-06 Location: mid north coast of NSW Age/Gender: 15 | | | | i have a herp room and my bedroom full lol, nice room tho, how are you gonna heat the beardies in that big thing, also the uv would have to be pretty good aswell. make sure it doesnt get to hot in the room also, we had an issue about a year ago with a glass enclosure overheating on a really hot day and killing a bearded dragon hatchie which was in it |

| | - Subscriber | Join Date: Jun-07 Location: hornsby area, sydney Age/Gender: 13 | | | thanks for all the replies
it used to be a 'cubby house' but we havent used it in like 7-8 years so i was allowed to use it. with the heat in summer, we found these sails and we had spare poles (i dont know why ) so we used them over the roof, i tryed it out on a really hot day and no probs -was gonna get a whirly bird but i cant afford it. also i got the reptile sign from Luke1
i would have more stuff in the turtle tank, cept im just looking after them for a friend 
the heat source is behind the UV light-

| | - Subscriber | Join Date: Jun-07 Location: hornsby area, sydney Age/Gender: 13 | | | | yeah actually i should, thanks. im going to move them into the big enclosure in a month or something, it has tiles on the bottom.
yeah the water in the bowl is im guessing 1 cm high
