Thank you, everyone: this has definitely put my mind at ease
I have mixed feelings about Reddit, because it was the first place that taught me that I could improve my husbandry, and Naga is definitely better off for it. But as Bogertophis says, there's so much baloney there! I feel like for every one thing I learn there, I have to unlearn another two.
And I'm genuinely annoyed that Reptifiles is an Amazon Affiliate site, because that seems to be either largely unknown or kept under the radar in a lot of conversations I've seen.
