    Cool. If I might suggest, tho: get two all-enclosing hides, cover the back and both sides of the tank, and treat the screen top with foil. Otherwise looks really nice! :)

    Sorry, I'm a tank helper and I can't resist giving assistance. :oops:

    Thanks for the tips. I do cover the top with a layer of foil. I just removed it because I rearranged the tank today while he was eating his mice. And it looked more photogenic without it. :P Though I would like to do know how you went about covering yours so that it's permanent without encumbering opening/closing of the lid because I definitely have to mist daily to keep the humidity up! And I haven't found a background that I like yet but I'm not overly concerned considering Freddie seems 100% comfortable as is -- he eats like a champ and generally seems like a pretty content snake. And those are the only decorative hides I can find that he fits under, lol. They're fairly snug so I'm pretty sure he likes 'em. :)

    No problem. :) I live to help others.

    Screen treating with foil is easy: 3 layers of aluminum foil, shiny side down, topped/held on with duct tape. A hole is then cut on one side for ventilation/heat lamps. I add a vinyl 'window' in the center for light to get in as well. You can see it on the pix of the tanks above.

    I made a photo step-by-step of the process when I did the screen to my ExoTerra. I can PM it to you if you'd like. :)

    The photo of the corn snake in the soap dish makes it look mystical and holy. Like the angels came down singing when the photo was taken. :8:

    That would be awesome because I am a visual learner. :oops: Thanks!
