Cage looks great but just a little advice. The vents aren't bad but you might add a little screened vent to the bottom so the air circulates the cool air goes in the bottom forcing warm stale harmfull airborn bacteria out the top, so you don't need such a big vent on the top.

hey,
if i could change things, I would, but unfortunately I already painted it and its all finished. the next time I build one, it will contain a computer fan in the back and it will go into the rock. the rock wall have little holes (like a airhocky table) so the the fan is not visible.

I'm sorry, but I am going to have to disagree with everyone. I do not think that this looks natural, as where in nature do you find rock that is formed and shaped like this? Most rock outcrops and formations that you find in nature are sedimentary, where there are many different noticeable striated layers. This rock looks like it was all fused together, there are no fissures, striations, or cracks in it. While the thought of creating such a cage is great, i think that you should go out and analize and research what real rock looks like so that you can mimic it in your enclosures. I do not think it looks 'natural', as there are no rocks which exist that look like that..

lol,
I didn't built this cage intending it to look exactly like it would in nature, I did it like this as to how it would best Accommodate my two leopard geckos. And it is definitely better then having a tank with nothing but a water dish and a few hides.
