Update... apparently Freddie is fine with his new home. I fed him five days ago and tried to feed him again tonight. Whammm!!! He hit like he always does.
In the pic you can see the rat tail hanging out of his hide.
I realize bioactive isn't for everyone and many of you with many snakes like the sterile tub environment but for those of us like myself who only keep one or two snakes this is a great way to display our pets IMHO. Time will tell if this will continue to be a reliable and proper way to house Freddie in a healthy home while maintaining his needs but I'm very optimistic that he continues to eat after being in this large Vivarium for only a few days. The temps and humidity are within all the care sheet ranges and they are set up for Freddie first and plants second. Its not a rain forest or dart frog type Vivarium by any means and I don't even have a drainage layer for the fact I will never be adding that much water.

Looks great. I have a bioactive enclosure for my emerald tree boa. Although I myself am moving away from bioactive for various reasons, I think youre exactly right, it's a great way to showcase your snakes if you dont have a huge collection.

Re: Bio active Vivarium
You did a good job with that enclosure.
There is no "one way" to keep this species as long as you can recognise the difference between one that is fine and confident in its enclosure and one that isn't. The fact he is still eating for you is a good sign he feels secure. I have never tried bio-active enclosures myself due to the huge ...erm.... "output" of my bp's but if it continues to work for your snake then all is golden.
