I have a "spare" 10x29x14 rimmed aquarium that I got for free from someone, and my question is this:
On a scale of 1-10, how bad of an idea would be to use it as a tropical paludarium? (like this one
)
The plan currently is to turn it so it stands 29" tall, silicone a piece of glass to the underside of the plastic rim (or pop the rim off entirely) and use it with 8" of water in the bottom (roughly 5.8 gallons) and do some foam carving for a full back panel. I'd probably end up making a roll-up screen cover anchored with magnets, or an acrylic swinging "door".
Based on my relative success making my sump and macro tank, I feel like it shouldn't be an issue setting this up, but I'd welcome feedback/opinions.
