Hi everyone, I figured since I was already hosting this image to show on another forum I might just as well post it up here for you to see. This is a 24 inch long aquarium I use to house my baby CWD for now. I am thinking about upgradeing to a 6 foot long 125 Gallon aquarium then building an expansion on top of that to increase the height. This is what I got for now though. I would like to note this photo was taken before I added the wall paper to the back of the aquarium and also before I added a basking log that runs from the top right hnad corner down to the fake tree.

Nice enclosure, you might wanna stick to that one til he/she gets alittle bigger because he/she is pretty small. She looks kinda dead on that rock, , i hope shes not! Cool enclosure tho, really neat! Steven

no she isn't dead on that rock. That picture was taken about 2 weeks ago when she was not feeling so hot. She was stressed from being moved into a new enviroment (from the pet stote to our home) and had conjunctivitis (an eye infection) she didn't do a whole lot for a few days in there. The vet gave us some eye drops and told us to use moss as a substarte instead of the coconut shaveing stuff we had and she is doing lots lots better now. Probably one of the most current pics I have of her I had already posted it is this one:

As I noted in my original post I have a log (well, stick actually) that runs from the bottom left hand of the tank (near the tree) all the way to the top right hand rim of the tank now. I also have 3 sides of the tank covered with a decorative jungle background so it feels more enclosed. I really wish I had a digi cam so I could just snap pics and upload them but alas I do not. I have to take pics with a fil camera and have it converted to jpgs on a CD at the photo lab.
EDIT- Temps and humidity are within target. I have and ambient tank temp of 82-84 degrees on the cool side. I have a basking temp of 92 degress on the rock archway and 97 degrees at the top of the stick (not shown in this photo). Humidity is usually 50%-82% during the day. At nights the entire tank is between 72-74 degrees and humidity starts at 82% and it usually above 60% when I get up in the morning and turn all the lights on.

Yes I have UV on her, the lamp on the left has a screw in type UVB bulb and the lamp on the right has a regular 75watt basking bulb. I would like to upgarde to a 'strip' type UV lamp with a UVB tube light soon though.
