    This is a good point, also water spillage and snake pee would be contained.

    it looks very nice very clean. a European feel to it i guess. i would add a lip by silicone a small strip of acrylic in the front so as the other posters pointed out you wont loose substrate or any liquid messes that may happen. or if you find a tray the right size that could slip in and act as a base to contain everything.
    again very nice.

    Thanks guys. You are right, I missed this out when I designed it, was thinking the whole time that it would just be layer of small layer of substrate. I plan to put a newspaper first and then the Aspen bedding.

    Will see what I can do to put a lipt on it, maybe about an inch Lip or an inch and a half.

    Thanks for the suggestion guys!

    @adamjeffrey: Thanks man! The Bumblebee morph and the color of the character jives too much I just had to make it lol :-)

    Looks like I have to put my snakes migration on hold first. I may have made the tank too hot. You see here in the Philippines we normally have around 83-85, at night we down to 78-80. I monitored the temps of new tank for a couple of hours during the day, it seems I am at 90 almost all the time. This would be too much right? Humidity is fine though. So I have movef the tank inside a room where the aircondition is always on, I will monitor the temps again, if temps go down to 85-87 the I will put the tank indoors instead of keeping them outdoors on my pateo.

    Or would it be ok to keep them in 90 tanks 24/7 witht the right humidity?

    I started new thread for my temp questions so you may answer there, thanks!

    Here is an update on the stopper (lip) I just had installed this PM.

    Hope I can solve the temps so I can move them in their new home already.
