    My Tank.

    So, I got some pictures of my tank... but you're gonna have to go to the account 'cause I don't know how to post pictures here. lol

    I've got Forest floor as the Substrate.
    A 60 watt CHE for the ambient heat. <---(On but not really hot at all??)
    A UTH (that is not on right now 'cause I don't have a thermostat.)
    2 Hides
    Thermometer and Humidity Gauge. (Digital)
    A couple of water bowls. Not in the tank, only one is in the tank.)

    Thanks for checking out my post.

    Re: My Tank.

    get a fake leaf vine or two to put in there and clutter up the tank.

    two identical cave-like (one opening) hides is SOP (standard operating procedure) for beeps. half-log hides don't provide the best security for the snake. i'd get two more hides that are identical and cave-like and place them in there amongst your other hides.

    cover the remaining two sides with dark paper or fabric.

    you seemed like you were questioning your CHE. is it regulated? have you let it run and monitored temps?

    I would only change the hides to make them identical. Foil over three sections of those screens on top ang get an accurite thermometer/hygrometer. Plants for your beep to feel more secure. Great start! Most of us hate those logs. They are not secure enough for beepers. And once peed on toss it anyway.

    I don't have a thermostat for my CHE, i'm just letting it run for now to see how hot it gets, but I am getting 2 thermostats, 1 for the CHE and 1 for the UTH.

    You can get a dimmer/rheostat too for your Che.

    You can get this at lowes or home depot or on Amazon works like a champ just make sure to have a thermometer to check the temp under it to dial it in.
