I really like those Waterland tubs. I wish they weren't so expensive.
Very nice. Have you thought of perhaps adding the water area a shallow bog or marsh when they get bigger. I know these guys can be found in shallow wetlands during a season.
Yeah, I am getting to a point with the arachnoides where I could open that portion up and actually have a water section. I won't for them though, since I bathe them so often that I don't think they need it, and the shallow water dish is so easy to keep clean. When I had the water section filled with water for the arachnoides, it got dirty fast and was impossible to keep clean.
For the planicauda, I probably wouldn't do it for the same reason, but I would be willing to figure something out to fill that niche for them without creating something that will create an unhealthy environment where I can't keep water clean!
They really are great. The Water tubs are even better! I have my Actinemys pair in a medium Waterland, and it is just an amazing product. Shipping is where you really get hit, especially on anything medium or larger. This small was cheap to ship. Other than shipping, I think they are great enclosures with a nice footprint. Easy to setup, heat, drain, clean, etc.
