The LEDs provide a wide range of lighting options. From bright white, pictured here, to dark red. I use the bright white to clean. Dark red to check on my snake at night. Mostly, I just leave them off. The room gets a lot of natural light.
My plan is to not leave any gaps that even a tiny snake can conceivably fit through. Then, I'll watch him like a hawk because I'm aware that snakes often do inconceivable things.
At this point, I don't know what I'm getting so I'm trying to modify the enclosure so that it's suitable for anything from a hatchling to an adult. Once I know, then I'll post another thread seeking advice on the furnishings, but I expect it to include a lot of clutter.
