Update of aquarium solution of my own

30 gal. aquarium turned on its side and a display type casing built around that. Theres an aquarium strip light on top for keeping light schedule. Picking up heat pad today and setting up to start testing temps before the girl goes in this weekend.

Looks cool I'm trying to find free cage plans on line to make my own cage I like how your is turned out great idea and design

Thank you it was quite the little project. The true test will be what kind of temps and humidity it will hold nicely. My girl is currently in a glass aquarium and temps are very difficult to keep and humidity forget it.

Make sure you have enough ventilation hole. I have used just plexy versions (I think you have referred to) and found that with out enough holes it quickly becomes stale and old smelling I found that holes low and high work the best. I have used 1/4 inch holes and 2 rows of the ever inch off set, both top and bottom.

What kind of snake are you putting in this enclosure?

[hogleyripper]

I will be putting a ball python in this cage. And yes I have enough airflow designed in with a air gap on the door itself. Should get plenty of fresh oxygen.

Hopefully that is enough. The last time I heard that was a fellow with a rack and a 1/4 inch at the top, he ended up with 4 cases of RI. Airflow and RI have been connected for quite some time.

The words of the Barkers, you can't have too much.

I had trouble over the weekend trying to get correct temps so I'm going to take the aquarium back out and add some insulation and close in the back. I believe there is too much open air around the aquarium so i am fighting air temperature really bad.
