Hi,
So I know the size of the enclosure I have to build but I had a few other questions.
1)Can we use plexiglass for the whole thing?
2)Can we use a rubber pond sheet to line the bottom?
Also, I've seen people mention needing ventilation toward the bottom. What does that mean exactly? How would I go about doing that?
Just a few notes: I use peat moss as a thick bottom layer and cypress mulch over the peat moss. I have Sheldon in a large tank right now and live in the north east. I've had a hard time with keeping his humidity up. So I need the best type of enclosure to help humidity. We want to make this as soon as possible as Sheldon is 8 1/2 inches long and it seems like he's growing like a weed. He recently had his yearly checkup and is doing great
