    Hopefully the pillowcase works for you. I saved a snake from a very bad shed with the pillowcase method.
    At my pet store the bigger water bowl is 24.89. I got a price on the tank, waterbowl, and the new UTH made specifically for that tank size.

    Yikes. Ever thought about switching to tubs? That is a lot of money to spend more than once on an animal.

    Nothing wrong with droppin some cash for a tank display that looks nice and better suits your animal. What kind of substrate do you use?

    I understand but if you switched to tubs you would save hundreds of dollars and you would never have another humidity problem.

    Iris tubs are actually very clear and if you put some fake plants in there it can look quite nice!

    I agree that tubs aren't nice to look at but I honestly think that the snakes are happier and thrive better in plastic housing. To combat these conflicting thoughts I added some nice cabinet hardware to the tubs in my rack. It makes the whole think look less like some funky storage and more like a decorative drawer, with some AWESOME LOOKING SNAKES!!

    I guess I could do all the same stuff to it and would probably save space and give me option to do racks and get more but I just I don't like the look I mean I saw how nice the one girl had her set up in one of the pictures... it just peeves me to see them in containers >.< .... that sometimes even looks way too small for them.... I kind of like the open-ness of tanks... I may just save up and get a RBI, when I figure out how the heating would work in it.
