So the way my new tank is working out so far I am unable create a temperature gradient as wide as the one recommended. I am figuring the best way to handle that, but what I want to know now is is it safe to put my snake in its new home?
The temperatures can either be 84 degrees in the cool side hide (maybe down to 83 in one corner furthest from the RHP) with 89-90 in the warm side hide OR around 82 on the cool side but then no higher than 87.
I understand my snake is equipped to handle weather which is not climate controlled, but to my knowledge never has so I want to avoid shocking it or giving it heat stroke because all of a sudden it can't find anywhere to go that is cooler than 83ish degrees.
I did already go and buy a bigger water dish my snake can fit in completely but I'm not sure that will help much if the ambient temperature is around 85 degrees.
Please help!
