Need advice/suggestions on upgrade plan

Enclosure Help

So I have my girl in a 10 gal right now (please don’t bully me, I was super misinformed and made plans to upgrade the moment I realized. She is still a juvenile and I get great heat gradients) I also have 3 hides, a water bowl, a calcium bowl, moss, soil, some smooth succulents, and a basking rock. She’s also on a timer system with 14 hours of light and a ceramic heater at night since my room gets cold.

Plans include:

- I’m building a 36x18x18 front opening enclosure for a school project and will keep it. It will have an open top as well for a grate

- going to mix soil and sand

- going to get linear uvb instead of halogen

-going to get some cork bark

- underground hide for humid (she currently has a bell jar with moss)

I’m also going to be slowly introducing some probiotics, minerals, bee pollen, vitamin a, color enhancer, and magnesium from gargeer (I checked all of them)

Anything else I don’t think of?
