But remember--Glass tanks are not safe! Because glass tanks trap heat, the tortoise is at great risk of becoming overheated and dying. Rubbermaid containers are much safer, and they are cheaper too. They come in a variety of sizes. I have read of smeone even using the Rubbermaid closet by flipping it on its back and removing the doors. I think that may have been someone on this forum.

A good place to look for hatchling setups is the Hatchling Haven by Darrell Senneke.

There is also a site with instructions to build an Indor Land Turtle Table by David T. Kirkpatrick, Ph.D

Good luck!
