More ?s while building

So i have a spot in my cage I'm making into a water bowl, my question is can I put sand on the bottom and rocks? I've already sealed it off as much as humanly possible and want to make the bottom rocky. The top part is where I'm talking about

A water bowl needs to be cleaned and dis-infected frequently, how do you plan to clean the rocks, and sand ?

I could see rocks, but not sand.

my friend had something like this for his corn snake, its not too hard to clean, you just need a turkey baster... I suggest you make or buy a plastic container that you can move around that fits in there. you can still move it for cleaning

Agreed....how do you plan to remove it and disinfect it regularly? I personally never understood why people feel the need to make such realistic environments. All my snakes have never had a health issue in the 3 years Ive been keeping in tubs and racks. As long as they have fresh water, hides, proper temps and humidity they do just fine.

New sand and yeah it would get cleaned. And making it cuz I'm more or less board have the space and money to build a display cage for my carpet that's all want it to look nice and function properly.
