Turtle tank setups and other indoor configurations.

it is nothing special right now, but it works for now. Once school is out for the semester I'm going to buy him a bigger tank and build him an above tank basking area out of a 10 gallon tank I have.... speaking of which, does anybody know an easy way to off one side of a tank?

What a cute face he has!
You'll want to remove that gravel in your tank- not only does it trap debris and make the water dirtier quicker but it poses a health risk to your turtle. Turtles have a nasty tendency to eat gravel and it can become impacted in their intestines and kill them.
As for the 10 gallon I suppose you'd have to take the top support off and then use a razor blade to cut the silicone off of one side of glass.
Take a look around the photo gallery, a lot of members on here have made some nice above tank basking areas- maybe you'll get some ideas from their pictures.
