alright i have my new ball python and i have him in a 20 gal tank right now. i have some extra cash right now so i was wondering which tank i should buy for him. i know i am thinking ahead but i want to get set up for when he is ready to move into something bigger. he is 25in. right now. i am looking at the medium tank from precision cageing or the T11 from apcages. i am leaning towards the T11 with the bottom heating. if i do order that ons should i get a cut out for the heat lamp on the top. what other things should i ask them to do to the cage if i order one.

another thing also i was wondering is i have his hide on one side of the cage and the water dish on the other side. i am heating under the hide is this right or should i swithch the hide and the water dish.
