One more thing. You know the screened in part on the side. You need to make one on the vary back to prevent escape. Got one more picture.

yeah, it's a 10 gallon, its all i can afford right now, thats why i had the 2 level... If it is completely necessary, i will buy a Rubbermaid container when he gets bigger until i have enough money to buy the proper size tank
