is the top like an aquarium hood that you see on fish tanks? a plastic top with lights in it?

The hoods on the fish tanks don't cover the entire top.

ErR, if the hood covers the entire glass enclosure, how does air get in?
Does the hood have a vent on top? :shock:

on the specific one i have there is a small hole for an air tube to go into the tank and hook up to the filter/aerator. you can also use a submersible power head, which you attach via a suction cup, and that provides plenty of oxygen. these hoods are designed for tanks that will contain fish.

well that's why they make screen and other tops for aquariums too. cuz, yes your snake will be needing some oxygen.

If I was you, I'd get a screen-top.
Actually, if I was you I'd just get a rubbermaid, and a heat-pad ... save yourself the hassle of messing around with lights and humidity.
