New build for the king

We were about to throw away a desk but saved it, and is now being turned into a new tank for Ammit so far I only spent 25$ on plexiglas and some round wooden posts. It is 4' long, 1 1/2' deep, and 1' tall. Can't wait for it to be finished

The post in the middle is just to hold up the top temporarily

Re: New build for the king

Does anyone have any suggestions on lighting?? Their is a little swoop in the back left of the enclosure, and we are thinking about putting plexiglas over it, and hook up some LED lights.
