Thank you! I really appreciate it. As for your big girl. I think the wood ramp will support her but it you need more support. You can definitely modify the ramp. You can add a second ramp next to it and join them with zip ties. You can also zip tie the ramp to the bottom tank bracing. Leaving enough slack For the ramp to rise and fall slightly with the water level. And as for securing the tank better. I would recommend Velcro tape. It’s really strong and will serve it’s purpose. I hope that helps.

What are the clear things you have installed in between the 2 tanks ?

How exactly is the smaller tank supported above the larger tank? I want to keep a bar hood light at the back and have a basking area on the front (which looks like what you have there?).

very nice and clean look i was thinking of doing the same but i couldnt put my thought together. this helps out alot :) i already made a basking area. the old egg crate one. but i realised heat is escaping since all the walls are egg crate. so gonna do this instead. as for the ramp. the ramp tho i think my turtle gets annoyed by it but she goes up there. but im thinking of tryin to find a more natural way of doing it. my turtle is 12 years old. how did you put the log to attatch to the bottom of the basking area?

As for the log, I purchased cork bark from petco, you can also order it from amazon. Then I put a hole in it with a screwdriver and zip tied it to the egg crate platform under the tile. The turtles love it. Since it’s so natural, they don’t slide off and it’s very easy for them to grab ahold of it.

You’re replying to a video that’s almost 3yrs old. I made 3 more basking tanks the same way since then. They all worked for me, you can get the glass out any way you want. I’m too impatient and my time is too valuable to sit there and try to remove a piece of glass that I didn’t plan to reuse. Not to mention I gave a good example of how to control the glass. If you can’t deal with a little glass, you don’t need to be attempting this in the first place.

@@TheFishCorner Doesn't matter the time, I just saw it today so it's new to me! No worries, love this basking area idea!

U could have just cut silicone and removed glass but basking is op

Nope, It didn’t work. I tried that first. But right on. I appreciate that.

Whar did you use to sit the tank on the other tank?

Half of the glass lid. Most of the weight rested on the trim.

This looks super cool; will be making the same for my Charlie 😆. Thanks!!
