    You're baby will be stressed out by all that room. Baby snakes are prey for many things... and with all that space above him, he'll feel completely exposed and vulnerable. That said, if you still want to go ahead and set up the 20L, I would put a TON of hides in there, as well as a few climbing branches and vines... that way he'll feel like he can hide no matter where he goes in the enclosure.

    I wouldn't go with a bulb at all. I'd use UTH for a RTB, they are extremely vulnerable to low humidity and don't do well at all in it. Bulbs suck up all the moisture in the setup, especially heat bulbs.
