Having him in a 48 inch cage can cause stress. Young bp are usually kept in a 20 tank. Crawling up the sides and exploring is normal but the open area of the huge cage will cause him stress.

If you want to use it you need to junk it up. Meaning fill it up with plants, logs, multiple hides giving it plenty of cover.

This is mine to give you an idea. I have live and fake plants.

Here are better shots to see how much cover she has. She is crawling through the tank in the pics. My tank is only 36 inches long and is considered to large.
