Hey guys -- I'm new here and new to snakes or reptiles in general. I'm setting up a 20 gallon long tank for a ball python. I didn't want to pick up the snake until I have everything figured out and the temps dialed in.

Here are a couple pics of the setup. Does anyone see anything wrong or have any suggestions?

Heating: 2 under tank heat pads connected to 2 seperate thermostats, one for cold and one for hot. The hot side is set for about 90 degrees and the cold side is set for about 80 degrees.

Lighting: 2 8" light fixtures, day is 50W halogen zoomed - night is 75W zoomed blue night bulb. They are set on 12 hour schedules with a day/night power strip.

Temp: I've got 2 flukers digital thermo/hygrometers, one on each side. I'm also spot checking with a digital thermometer with a probe to check the ground temp.

I'm using that bed-a-beast stuff for the substrate on top of the repti-carpet. I've got 2 different hides, 2 water dishes and some branches/decorations.

Thanks

The camera phone pics aren't the best in the world.
