Thats cool. I do the same. My BP sit under the window, I open my shades too letting in sun light and I guess starting a cycle, but two lights are different the it light they can't see and the others they can. Can be a bad thing because of stress is what I'm getting. If I apply all his to my virv then what I have is a glass tank 18 by 36 by 18. (Or cording to this sight enough to sustain the snake her whole life) with two hides and lots of fake plants to hide under. I have a powerfull day time bulb in a ballast on a timer 12 on 12 off. Heat pad large water dish which she did swim in after eating Monday a fogger in the large water dish so I don't worried about humidity just flip that thing on and that's it no humidity problems. I was using a red light at night but red all this nocturnal info and stopped will prob just use when it's chilly out. She seems to like the cooler areas like swimming in the cool water after eating and relaxing on the cooler side of the tank.
