I really like the giant day geckos. I realy want to build a custom tank for one. I have the plans to build a sweet Viv that measures 24"Lx24"Wx36"t about 90 Gallons when all said and done. It would have a solid screen top for optimal ventilation and UV exposure. would be able to hold 8 to 10 inches of water in the bottom for a small fish pond and drainage layer. and would have double doors like the exo terra tanks but on the side so the front would be an unobstructed view into the micro environment. Not a difficult project but beyond what I can afford to take on right now
