I think it would be the best to put different kits in the tank made from
natural products: wood, sand, soil, hay... I think wood is the best, cause it
lasts longer than any plastic thing. I personaly don't use plastic and kits you
can buy in pet shops. I made everything by myself: i made holes in the wooden
piece, i put in the cages big wooden asts, a lot of hay, clay cups...
If you have any pictures, please send me some!
