For the most part, everyone has given you the correct information.

However, i will say, and this is just with my Experiance.

I bought a baby BP, and bought a 40 gallon tank on the day of my purchase.

Now, i had no problems with my guy, and i was terrible with my humidity, terrible with my temps, and everything else.

Maybe it was just my little guy, but he was great, never had any problems, even with how bad i was doing at first.

I want to say, if you have a small BP, get smaller hides, you don't want them to be big. I bought some small salad bowls from Walmart, and made openings in them. He loves them.

I use the cocount bedding, and like it much better than the Aspen bedding, i couldn't control the humidity with it. What i do is i obviously soak the brick in water, and it's pretty wet after i'm done. So i then before putting my snake in, put 2 lamps over my tank and let it kind of dry down. May take an hour or 2, but that's just what i do. Like someone said, you don't want a swimming pool.

With it being so small, i get alot of drift wood from the store, the fake trees they have, etc. Make him feel secure. The more the better.

Also, when i got mine, he didn't eat for about 2 weeks, until he felt comfortable, then after that i have never had a problem with his eating. Maybe i got a lucky one, because i screwed up alot at first.

That's just my 5 cents, and opinion
