The best purchase of my life !!!

Does that enclosure have any venting? If not, you should remove some of the top so that air can circulate. It's not good to have a tightly sealed tank.

Right there brother.
its black bristol board with a few layers of tin foil underneath I used the black bristol board to make it look alittle bit better on the outside

Nice looking little spider, congrats!

what I did is but some newspaper right above the heater then but the chips over the newpaper, becouse my snake was moving the chips around and laying right on the glass. I hope this help

I used cardboard as the base of course I took measurements of it first cut the cardboard then wrapped about 4 layers of tin foil around it cut the square for the light then I placed black bristol board on top to make it look somewhat nice and just taped it down with black electrical tape ....keep in mind I took about half an inch around the whole screen cover so that there is some ventilation ....cant see it very well in the pics put its there .


Goodluck if you try it !:)

Congrats!
