Almost done

I think I've about got it. I need to figure out where to put the temperature humidity meter. I still need to wrap the tension rods with burlap.
The plexiglass is warping, but I have put a single handle on the other side and what I will do is turn them upside down periodically and see if that stops the warping. If not I will take the measurements into my local glass shop and have glass cut for those spaces.
The heat isn't quite where I want it, but I will take the heater from the end of his tank and put it onto that one when I move him and that should bring it up a couple of degrees to where I want it to be.
I still have some rocks to put into the bottom of his deeper pool, but they're in the pool he's using now so I'll move them when I move him too.
His freshwater pool is not near as deep because I have never once seen him actually get into the freshwater. He has always just walked around the rim and dipped a claw in. He regularly hops into the saltwater.
I do believe I'm only going to have a light on one side and leave the other side more shadowed. It's still obviously daylight but more like a shaded area.
I will see how that goes because I do have multiple lights I could change it.
