From 10 gal to 30 gal??????

I feel like Im broke lol and Im still not done buying stuff AHH! oh well its for a good cause.

Got the tank. Looks awesome, still need to clean it out. Hide is super big! oh my!!!

I went and finally got my acu-rite digital thermom and humidity gage w prob at walmart! A much much needed item!!!!!

I got a new bigger under tank heater. Cost me $35!!! :O

Now Im looking for a cheap way to adjust the heat pad temp. I dont want to pay $25 to get one specifically made for reptiles. Is it possible to buy a dimmer at Home Depot that I can plug the heater in and dim the UTH that way? It has to be possible right?

Also where do I put the probe?

Heres what All I got for $40 :]
Im very pleased. Bleached everything. Baked the wood.

There were some dangerously sharp edges on the inside of the exoterra cage that cld easily cut a snake. :OSo i sanded those down.

My dad is in the process of making me a dimmer.

The hides you can put in the dishwasher. This is very effective for disinfecting. The log on top you can bake for 30 min. at 280 degrees and it will kill anything on or in the wood.

poor thing... I switched him and he is just active as can be flicking his tongue everywhere. I can't tell if hes scoping the place out or is stressed.

I put black construction paper on the sides like suggested, put aluminum over top. It has quite a few things in it. But when I go in front of the tank he just comes over to me and its like he want me to get him out.

How long will it take him to adjust?

Whew he must have not been too stressed b/c he just went into his hide :]

Here are some pics. Tell me what you think.

Looks good, have fun waking up to "SPLASH" though. My BP would always test the screen and then fall in his bowl when I had something set up for him to climb on.

Diving board!!!!! :] Haha That would be cute. It is a HUGE water bowl though! He is drinking out of it right now :] Must like it. My bp is the most laid back bp ever. He doesnt let anything throw off his groove.

As long as it feeds regularly I wouldn't worry. Every snake is different though. I use racks so I guess my 2cents are kind of useless in this situation. Ever since I've made the switch to racks, my snakes have done 100% better.

:[
As I was holding my snake I was like "Hey his tail looks so much thinner... Did he poop?" I look in his cage...nothing. And Im like oh crap. I had him on my bed while setting up his tank.

I turn my comforter over and bam! a big nice log and pee. Al over my sheet and down comforter. Now Im washing at 1am. He had 4 weeks to poop in his tank but no he had to do it on my bed!!!!

And he peed a couple days ago on my bed too. So now for the 2nd time this week im washing my bed linen...... :OOOOOOO

DARN DARN DARN
:rage:

I just got done washing linens too! First time it happened to me since 2008! Your bp must've gotten a hold of my bp and had some serious planning going on...
