Possible New Enclosure Idea

[Malon3r]

So.. I was a bit dumb and baught a 36x12x12 when I was first getting a bd.. now that he's pretty much outgrown the height, and as weather should now permit im probably going to build a 4x2x2 for him. One of my concepts is something along the lines of this.

Looks pretty neat, only thing i think could be an issue is your ramp to the first middle level. If you tank is 24" deep and the middle level is 12" deep, your ramp will likely be in contact with the front of your enclosure with a reasonable angle on the ramp. I just built an enclosure and my upper basking level is around 8" off the bottom and i ended up needing a ramp 20" long so i didnt have a steep angle, wasnt something i expected until i was building it. So just keep that in mind and good luck!

To provide extra ramp room you could have two ramps going down to the sides next to the upper ramps (think the way a staircase goes) with a landing in the middle instead of having the first ramp coming forward.

Nice design, I would think as long as there is something to grab, like use aquarium silicone/ adhesive and some small wood strips. Or you can always use some type of branch to get up and not have that front ramp, just the two on the sides and the dip down. How are you going to attach the shelves? I have a huge tank that had a shelf before, I used metal shelf brackets, and just had different branches and other things to get up there.
