My BP never goes in his hot side hide.

The ambient air temp is pretty high considering it is an open tank! You might want to double and triple check that! No mention of an under tank heater?

UTH > Bulb heat!!!

A BP wants to feel secure! If the BP can touch 3 sides of the hide, it is good! 3 sides and the roof of the hide, PERFECT!

Oh and I hate aquariums for snake enclosures!

I mentioned an under tank heater in the starter post, and in a reply from another user. That's 2 mentions

I'm scared that using only the under tank heater will not heat my tank as it should, that's why I use the heat lamp and the under tank heater at the same time.


I meant the temp of the hot side is around 86-88 degrees. That's like right under the heat lamp. The temp of the bedding under the hide is like 90-92 using the temp gun. Is that too hot for the snake?
