    Looks fine as long as your heat/humidity are within healthy range.

    Took the hygrometer out to clean it (it had snake poop)
    The aspen is about 3 inches deep.

    Are you using belly heat? 3 inch aspen will act as an insulator - it may help overheat any heat mat you're using and/or prevent that heat from penetrating through to the surface. Your bp may burrow to get to it, but if there's a heat build up you/your snake could be in for a rough time.

    In a tank yes, not in a tub. You can keep it there to check things out but not all the time.

    I used a gauge for about a week. It was not too reliable.
