RE: My enclosure design

I used POVRAY for the design
Not sure if im using too much or not enough wood framing but the tank holds 450liters of water
Anyone have any opinions on the design?

RE: My enclosure design

shorten the water bit so they have more dry land.... but at the same time also make it deeper!

how many are you planning on keeping in there?

How many would comfortably fit in this sized enclosure?
