Dear Maastards,

Yesterday I picked up an Exo-Terra Turtle Terrarium (http://www.exo-terra.com/en/products/turtle_terrarium.php) for my small Alligator Snapping Turtle (yes captive bred, born and papered). I began to look at this thing as a VERY cool nano tank. It is rimless, black silicone, the side glass is angled and it has a very nice, clean look. The beauty is I picked it up for only $109 for the tank. Have NO idea if drillable, but just thought I would throw it out there.

My calculations put it right at 26 gallons.

I have actually thought the same thing but never really considered it some reason, now that someone else brought it to my attention and I looked at it again and it would make a gorgeous little tank. Possibly my next nano!

I found mine at a Petland. There is also a stand from Exo-terra that matches.

You should know that terrariums and aquariums are different; terrariums are not meant to hold water. I suppose (dangerous, i know) as long as it was for an aquatic turtle it should work.

Yea, it is meant to be full and is sealed well. It would be just fine for a tank.
