If you aren’t already, I recommend joining some of the turtle subreddits. Some really cool people with some really good advice on turtles. I’ve had my RES for 9 years now and they’re teaching me stuff I didn’t know.

Use 100 grit sandpaper to dull down rough edges on light diffuser. I made this setup tonight and its smooth as can be and our turtle loves it already!

Funny that you made this video I built one for my turtle with the same egg crate on Saturday but mine hangs off the sides of the tank and has legs so its stable this way the turtle had more room. 4ft by 3ft. A ton of room for him to walk around. Dont carpet the ramp the holes in the crate make it easier for him to get up.

Great job! I built one of these egg crate light diffuser basking platforms for my RES about 5 years ago and it has worked very well. I'm building my male RES who just turned 9 last week a new aquarium set up and basking platform now. I was looking for some new tips and I gained a few new ones I'm going to use. I like the idea of painting the egg crate, using outdoor carpeting for the floor, and also how you positioned the ramp opening. Thanks!

So YOU ARE AWESOME. Very professional how you carry yourself and you’re young! Be very proud of your videos. So, I have a super cute Chinese striped neck turtle who was a rescue. I have a 75 gallon tank and HES thriving with about 20 other creatures in the tank as his neighbors lol. I have been wanting to build an above tank basking platform for a while and you have simplified this idea for me and made it look awesome! DEFF gonna do this for my turtle and probably before putting it to use gonna add some live plants or moss through the wiring! Did you have to use a specific spray paint or regular works fine? Just nervous if there’s a possibility for making the water toxic idk lol

Turtles will probably be fine, but if you also have any fishes they will definitely die. Probably be safer to leave the ramp unpainted since it's partially submerged.
