Ok, it took longer than I thought, I ran into some equipment problems. But I have the new environment built as of tonight, and it's now acclimating. This is largely based on advice from the folks in this thread, so consider yourselves part of the architecture team. It's 120 gal, PVC, and I built a split level (yes, I water-proofed the wood) on the right side for Angel to climb up on with a hide underneath. The warm side is the right with the double lamp overhead as well as a UTH, and the cool side has another hide that will eventually get sphagnum moss in it as a humid hide. I'm still playing around with orientation and placement. I'll wait until things stabilize to start introducing him a little at a time. I also built a little instrument cluster on the right for the cool side temp and thermostats for the lamp and UTH as well as the humidifier and a little holder for the laser thermometer. I'll eventually mount a webacam on that ledge so I can view the stats remotely and another over the tank to view the inside.
