Themed Tanks

[katiepaige31]

So my beardie is almost 6 months old. I figured its time to upgrade out of her 20 gal tank and into a 55. I understand that there are custom build projects already on here but I have yet to see exactly what I've been imagining.
Onto my idea, I have seen a mario themed tank. But where are the harry potter herp tanks?? I can not be the only nerd. I was planning on designing one, but the material part is driving me nuts.
I want to be able to recreate a mini version of the castle but have to where my beardie could hide in certain parts of it.

That is only one of my ideas. I am also considering a dutch themed tank: with fake tulips and windmills and all the colors of holland.

I know, a little nuts right??
But themed tanks seem so much cooler than the regular old tanks.
I just constantly run into the same block.... what am i supposed to use to build these crazy ideas???
Any help you guys can offer???? Thanks!!!!!

Hi, I understand exactly what you mean. I just got done making a lion king themed tank for my Kovu and was going to be making a harry potter themed cage for my sister's iguana and to give you a few ideas i was going to put a broom stick in there leaning in a corning for a sort of basking spot. and i was going to make the Whomping willow as a hide or just a climbing area.. the castle sounds great but might be hard to go into much detail so i would just focus on one part like the entrance or the halls or something like that. I love themed cages it was a pain to do but sooo worth it!

Lion king is an amazing idea!! Do you have any pictures? And I actually found a building clay you can make from flour salt oil and water. Maybe constructing most of the items out of that. Love the ideas I've found on here!
