New idea

[deranged chipmunk]

I've built numerous paludariums, and with the exception of one or two, have always used an egg crate false bottom. It increases your water volume, allowing you to keep water chemistry more stable (smaller water volumes are notoriously difficult to keep parameters stable), you gain hiding space for equipment, and leave plenty of room for improvements/modifications down the road. The only down side is you lose some height, but it's relatively minimal.

From a design point of view, jamming a tank inside of another tank is just silly looking, especially from a naturalistic point of view. And considering a 10g is 14" or so high, how much room are you really gaining? Or are you planning on having plants growing behind glass, behind more glass? Please don't take a wonderful design like you have above, and twist it into some strange looking tank inside tank monstrosity. Go natural! The frog goes will love it!!
