Your enclosure looks great and congrats on your boy!
Yeah, I've read all about PAM and would probably use it if I needed it. Thank goodness I don't... though I'll be keeping an eye on my boy just to make sure.

And thanks!

I love it in mine. I have a 30 gallon tank so i had to buy two of the 18x24" and had to make some modifications. The only problem I have had with it is that my BP will get behind it. I took some styrofoam pipe insulation tubing and ran it across the top to prevent him from getting behind it. Then I took some fake vines to run across that to make it blend in. Just something you might want to look into. I use it in both my ball python and leopard gecko tanks.
Thanks! I like that background a lot. Do you happen to have a picture of your set-up with it?
