Well I went and picked up my new bp last night. It's kind of an adoption deal, came with 55 gal. tank hide, 2 lamps and a uth(it's to small tho) I went today and picked up an acurite and a reptitemp 500r and hae everything set up now just trying to get the temps right. I put the sensor for the acurite in his hide above the substrate, is this right? I put the sensor for the 500r between the tank and the uth, soundin good so far? I need to go get two new hides for him as he only has one right now. He is just under 4 ft. how big of a hide does he need? I don't have any pics yet b/c I'm letting him settle in before handling and will wait til a few days after he eats to have him out long enough for pics. If I'm missin somethin let me know. Thanks for all the great info on this site!!!
