So far we've made a tank work and can't see any reasons why it wouldn't continue to work?.. We have about 2/3 rds of the screen covered with plexi-glass. We heat with a UTH hooked to a Hydrofarm thermostat for belly heat and the Zoo-Med Day/Night for ambient temps.. Substrate is cypress mulch
We use a Acu-rite thermometer/ humidity gauge from Walmart.. Just don't make the same mistake I did and think the probe measures humidity..Haha, it doesn't the sensor for humidity is on the back of the unit.. You have to put the whole thing in the aquarium..
We mist the tank every so often.. More often just recently when we noticed our snakes eyes had clouded over and she was getting ready to shed.. It really isn't all that much work and by all means isn't impossible to keep your BP in a aquarium and keep it healthy. I know some people swear it is impossible and so much hard work ! Really though for one snake, it takes maybe 5 minutes a day. If you're anything like us, you want to see the snake and decorate it's environment, not hide it in a ugly tub.
Good Luck, Bill

I asked this same question.. Seemed like our BP liked it, but some on here said it didn't ? Ours would flinch a little when the 1st mist hit it's skin but then would turn her head up towards the spray.. Sorta like it was in the shower..Hahaha .. Anyways, some people soak there BP in water if they are having a bad shed, so I doubt a little mist is going to hurt it. Might piss it off for a few seconds though..LOLOriginally Posted by Kyle Khaos
