For anyone keeping snakes....Plastic is your friend. For regulating proper temps and humidity, I'll take the strong stance and say that glass tanks suck. The post above about all the t-stats and heat pads and CHEs and all that stuff just go to show how much trouble glass tanks are. The user above has successfully set up a glass tank- but look how much trouble they went through to do it.

Simplify your life with a rubbermaid/sterilite/whatever tub, about 10" of flexwatt, and a thermostat. MUCH easier!
