Ideas to finish up this cage for my savannah
I got this cage off craigslist for a really good price which was like 90% done. It's 7.5 feet by almost 4 feet wide and has almost 2 feet of space below the windows for substrate. It was originally built for a tegu but I want to use it for my savannah.
It has 2 fixtures for spot/heat lighting on the right side and I added a 4 foot t5 fixture in the middle to add a lot of full spectrum lighting. The area you see on the left with the cut out fits a black mirror tub from Home Depot and was intended to be used a water tub. I'm debating covering it and using a regular water bowl or or putting the basking area there. The mirror tub may work out ok.
Just looking for some suggestions before I finish filling it with dirt and sand of what I can put to make it look a little nicer inside.
I need to add some kind of platform for her to bask and maybe a few display items.
Any ideas of what else I should do to finish this cage up

Re: Ideas to finish up this cage for my savannah
The basking spot looks like it's in the middle but it isn't. It's at like 75-80% off to the right. The pic makes it look like in the middle. It's also petty close to the back wall.
I was thinking about the digging and didn't want to have her hurt herself. Cinder blocks are a pretty good idea but maybe very heavy. I was thinking of making a small ram from the dirt towards the water basin and spanning a couple of 2x4 across from the water basin to the side of the cage and securing it in with screws. That way she would have more room to dig and still a reliable way to get to the water and heat depending on how the dirt gets moved around
