Going to upgrade to a canister filter... But for right now the two hanging filters are doing a decent job.

PVC frame with acrylic sides - used a torch to curl the top, to keep him from escaping. The platform is one piece acrylic, using a torch again to bend the ramp. Next cleaning I'll take pics of it off the tank. I am pleased with the outcome - so is Gurgi, of course he had to come up to see what I was up to. Love my little guy! (please don't mind the mess he made with his lettuce)

He has plenty of room to find the right temperature for himself. I incorporated his floating dock for some familiarity. I line the bottom with reptile carpet.

Wow, very impressive. What is that ramp into the water made out of?

Looks very nice! The ramp looks like a piece of acrylic with holes drilled into it.

Absolutely!

Good luck - the drill bit for plastic is a must! If you haven't started... I'll post some more pics off the tank. Now that I know what I am doing, my next attempt will go much smoother - I would love to save you the frustration that I went through - LOL
