Re: my first time posting a pic
Beautiful snake and set up.
But I hope you don't mind some constructive criticsm.
You need a better thermometer/hygrometer, as the analog ones are innacurate and unreliable.http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?actio...7GT&lpage=none
You also might want to make the hides a little more cramped for the snake because they like to be squeezed into a small spot.

Re: my first time posting a pic
What a pretty little snake!! And "Stealth" is such a perfect name!
The setup looks pretty nice, but I'd tweak a couple of things: He needs smaller hides...they like them really small and tight so they can cram their bodies in and feel "hugged" on all sides and from above, if possible.
Also, the little stick-on dials tend to be very inaccurate and are no help whatsoever in keeping a BP's environment optimal. I'd ditch those and get yourself a digital "indoor/outdoor" thermometer that also measures humidity. ($12 Acu-Rite from Walmart fits the bill nicely, but you can find others, too.)

And it seems like you will need another hide on the far left side. Just my  .
I think the size of the tank looks perfect. A gradient can be kept just fine in a 10gal if its done right.

Re: my first time posting a pic
i hope you guys dont thin that pot is the only hide the tree is pretty cramped thats his favorite spot. I also have a digital thermometer that i use on all my pets, those are just for those times that im to lazy to put in the thermometer. But keep the critisism coming im loving it ( the pretty snake comments arent bad either )

Re: my first time posting a pic
Just wondering ( nothing wrong with a ten gallon) ia that a ten gallon? It looks kind of tall, like a weird aquarium dimension.
