Ok, it's a great idea to separate your animals into individual enclosures. This is easily met with sterilite tubs.
I recommend you read this care sheet thoroughly.

I know you've said your new to this, but for the snakes benefit, it is best to keep them separately to prevent stress from domination, competition for best perceived spots, and to help prevent sickness.
Your temps are too low, the waterfall is usually not a good idea for BP's, including but not limited to: too high of humidity, bacteria and mold in base, and electrical shock if they knock it over.
I will search for some threads on detailed set ups for BP's in tubs to help you get these animals in proper enclosures.
