So Heres my New tank, my dad build the stand and ATBA. The tank is about 67 gallons the middle light is for UVB the one on top for heat. There is a small computer fan thats on a timer to suck out the hot air. there is two doors for feeding on either sides of the atba. its not done yet I need a background and to set timers, But I couldnt wait to post

Looks great! You and your dad did a really nice job on the project. The cabinet is beautiful.

Wow, that's a really great ATBA! I love that it looks like it's just part of the stand; very professional. I've never really liked ATBA's because most of them look so...tacky. After seeing yours, I might have to reconsider!

Thanks, and I'm actually only using a xp2. If it has a hard time keeping up I’ll add another.

Well, my brother had a jet ski like a stand up one, he redid the part where you stand with that "stuff" so I used some leftovers for grip. I used aquarium silicone to attach it. Sorry, I don’t really know what it is, rubber I guess? I thought it would be ok. Would it?

I think I know what you're talking about. I think as long as you cleaned it first it should be fine. Just make sure the turt can't eat any of it.
