i thought it wasnt a good idea to keep torts in all glass tanks? they dont understand invisible barriers. anyway it looks like you did a good job, i was looking into building a large aquarium(over 125gal) that way but it's just cheaper to buy a used one usually

It depends on the tortoise. I have not found mine to have problems with the clear sides. I also think, young ones adapt to them better. The nice thing is, these kinds of enclosures are usually easier to hold moisture in. ;)

So, the only thing holding it together is Clear silicon calking?
Yes, that is all that holds it together. I did use a top grade that is non toxic and will hold up to moisture and heat, and stay flexible.
