New water dragon/ water monitor enclosure!!

[sweetangel]

Hey everyone,

Just thought you might like to see some photos of my newly finished project.

I bought a huge 6x2x2.5 fish tank on ebay with the idea to turn it into a waterdragon/ water monitor enclosure. so here it is!

It is divided at roughly 3.5ft and 2.5ft, water and land. It has a sump filter which my bf made for me with the pipe holes that were already in there.

it has fake roclks siliconed onto the back and they are super happy running around.

This will be the house temporarily for my water dragons until i get my class 2 license so i can get my mitchells water monitors

I have to add more sand on the land side and more hides. also it need some more branches and stuff. but its better than them living in my shower

here is there old 4ft fish tank

and here are the pics of the new 6ft fish tank

hope you enjoy!

yeah well the 4fter was going to be the sump and i was gonna have and oscar in there...... but we had a major accident and the tank decided not to hold water anymore and start dumping over 50L of water on my floor.... so currently it is sitting outside with a hole in the back. mind you it was a second had tank to start with that didnt hold water when we got it. was ok with a small amount of water but not full. so im not sure what im doing with it yet. might try siliconing it back up, but i dont wanna risk it lol!

for the mitchell's? i think they should be ok in there for their hole lives. they dont grow to big, max size about 90cm and thats not very often, more around 75 -80 cm
