    If you have ANY tape inside the enclosure, remove it IMMEDIATELY. Even if you think the snake cannot get to it. They are very capable of moving things and getting into places you wouldn't expect.

    Do a Google search about snakes and tape. Nothing good comes of it and there are much better solutions for inside a snake cage if you really need something to be stuck in place. (For example, hot glue can be used to secure thermometer probes to the glass and is relatively easy to remove down the road)

    I am confused as to why you want to tape the water bowl to the bottom of the cage, though. Most dog bowls are heavy enough that they don't get dumped by the snake or have a wide enough base for the same reason. Can you clarify why it needs to be secured like that? (I would think that makes it difficult to remove to clean the bowl regularly)
