Hi,
I'm new to turtles.
I am planning a new Common Musk Turtle tank and need some advice on a DIY lid please.
I plan to place the basking lamps directly onto a wire mesh cover and attach the lamps to the wire mesh with mounting springs, like this... see attached.
I want everything secure and safe, from my small children.
How would you suggest I make the lid please?
I was thinking wire mesh over the basking area half of the tank and egg crate on the other half, but how would I make the wire mesh side safely and securely? I'm happy TO DIY it, but out of what...?
Many thanks
