Hey all, so i was asking for advice and guidance a few weeks ago about building a semi-aquatic tank for my pair of golden tegus. This is what i've come up with so far... (still gonna add a 2ft extension ontop of the tank)
Id love to hear what yall have to say about it.
Previous Setup (125G Tank with cyprus substrate and 12G Pond)

New Setup includes;
-Eheim 2213 canister filter
-200W submersible water heater
-125W Exoterra SolarGlo bulb
-120W basking bulb
-125W ceramic heat emitter
Water Temp is 82-84*F
Ambient Temp is 86-89*F
Basking Temp is 105-110*F
Tank Measures 72"L x 18"W x 24"H
The hide measures 14"x16" and has a hinged lid. The inside has an inch deep layer of cyprus and is kept nice and moist.
The tank seems to be very functional for them so far, they absolutely love having so much swimming room!
I'm also planning on adding more fish(12 gold barbs in it now), snails/shrimp and live plants once the tank cycles (if it actually does with so much waste entering the water).
I look forward to hearing your comments, opinions and ideas!
