Hey everyone. I'm Chris, and am going to be getting my first BP soon so I've been looking on here quite a bit trying to gather information on what I will need. I am going with a glass aquarium and plan to get all the goodies and equipment set up to where my temperatures and humidity are all correct before I even purchase a BP. I am wanting to do it right the first time so my BP is as comfortable as possible and I won't have to upgrade if something isn't working properly. Here are the items I am after so far:

Mesh Lid w/ Locks
Aspen substrate (noticed it was a favorite by quite a few people)
3 sides of tank covered with some sort material
Water bowl
2 Hides

Zoo Med UTH

Top Foil Treatment
What kind of light should I use for the spot that is open for a light?

I'm sure I am missing some things so chime in as needed and let me know what you all recommend so I can update my list. Thanks a lot.
