What's used as the interior walls? And how did he construct the top portion that hides the lights? It's a beautiful enclosure.

Thanks Carissa, the interior is completely lined with FRP (fiberglass reinforced plastic) paneling. You can get solid white at most Home Depot or Lowes stores. We purchased the almond color through a local supplier that was willing to order other colors. Very happy with it - its looks good and is glossy smooth so it cleans really well and is easy on the tegus rubbing their nose on it. The top is basically just a 3/4" plywood shell that hides the lights and keeps the heat/humidity in. Its enclosed on all four sides with a vent on either side of the back. It sits on top of a hardware cloth screen top that the lights rest on.
