Re: newbie here with question about new cwd enlosu

hi and welcome. I posted in your other thread about getting a used tank off of craigs list. Also if you are crafty and your WD is on the larger side, you can make an enclosure out of 1/2 inch chicken wire.

I also saw a nice enclosure made from an old TV cabinet. You could maybe get it at goodwill or something, and then get some tile. Tile the bottom and the sides. Fashion a door for the front. Cut a hole in the top for your heat/light source.

Then find small logs/big sticks and maybe some fake plants to decorate.

i just answered your question where you origanally posted it and made it as simple as possible , the key to this is keep a look out for people throwing stuff out.

Re: newbie here with question about new cwd enlosu

I'd save most of the money for some good quality UV lights. I agree with what has already been said. Now is a good time to browse garage sales looking for an old armoir that can be converted. You will have a hard time with only those tools. Best option might be to look in the classifieds for an enclosure someone is getting rid of.
