Its not hard to maintain a 110 gallon at all. Especially in upstate new york where its currently about 75 degrees out. and i live upstairs so my room is almost perfect for my snake i think. He has plenty of hides in his tank. i think you guys are dwelling that you think this is my first time coming in contact, when i have like 5 years expierence, i just never met an agressive one. As far as matienence goes, its not hard. Put him in a tub, throw out the bedding, clean the tank, put in new bedding, put in the rest of his stuff. and i have two UTH's and a heat lamp, but i haven't used the lamp in the past two days cause its been hot in my room, and i have the two uth's. Btw they should definatly without a doubt have 12 hrs of light or so? i'm just askin cause i have a window in my room and i know they hate the overhead light. and ill probably buy another smaller hide, but even though most people say they are ground dwellers, which is what i always thought too, if you put them vines in their tank you might see otherwise, as you can tell from my pictures.
