Getting ready to order my second enclosure from Animal Plastics.... a T8 or T10 (undecided as of now). In my current enclosure, the AP-installed LED strip is placed towards the back. While it generally looks nice, I feel the RHP blocks some of the light from reaching the front of the enclosure. I feel it looks too dark towards the front. I know the snakes don't need it either way. Plus, although for now I removed the shelf I had in there, with the shelf in place its too dark UNDER the shelf.

I know Animal Plastics is very accepting of customizations we might request. Anyone ever request AP to install the lights up front, instead of towards the back? And, do you foresee anything negative with such placement?

Or... how about two sets of LED's... one in the back, one in the front?

Ideas? Comments? All are greatly appreciated.
