    Tank help

    So I have this 55 gallon aquarium tank that I had my fish in once, I want to try and set it up for my snakes. Divided into 2, besides dividing the tank in 2, how do I go on heat, what wattage for that tank how big of a uth, and I am gonna put a bunch of decoration to make them feel safe of course and cover the 3 sides, any suggestions would be great thank you in advance

    You could try to do that but I think that would be kinda hard to do. How long is your tank?

    Make the "hot side" the middle of the 55 and cold sides on the ends, could probably do it with a single 60 gal heater in the middle on a thermostat.
