I ended up building a 7X4 12 in high box. Lined it with a tarp and used 5 bags of organic soil. 2X48 inch ZooMed Reptisun 10.0 UVB Bulbs in a fixture. 150 watt spot. I have not finished the whole thing but man he is happy. I put the box on cinder blocks. Very steady. I can list my full setup if requested. Check out the pics not nearly finished though. Building him a ramped swimming pool out of a plastic paint tray.
