I am curious as to whether you keep both in this tank or if you have 2 tanks?? Just wondering cause it sounds very spacious and yet also sounds like you've provided a lot of realism for snake... I would *love* to see a picture!! I think the underground burrow sounds cool.....
1st no they are in seperate tanks sadly the pastel is only in a 20 gal cuz my wife wont let me buy another 70 just yet but thats another story. he will get his 70 asap tho
they will share a tank for a lil while next season tho when my girl is bigger tho

2 i have never "pre-sented" but from what i have read about it i guess i have been pretty much pre-senting 24/7 as i used to keep my rats in a cage sitting right on top of my bps cage and now they are sitting in the cabinet under them, so pre-senting wouldnt work to well i dont think in my house just guess im lucky i havent teased them to much lol. i just put the rat in the other side of the cage and let nature take it from there.

3 on the underground hide its kinda cheating a little bit i took one of her log hides pushed it up on the glass with a little bit extra bedding inside and then burried the other side with bedding. she made her little hole that she gets in and out of, kinda stole the idea from those half caves you can buy but she likes it.( i can spend hours setting things up like that even do a bunch of fun things for the hamster and gerbil out of cardboard has to be trashed alot but gives me more to do). i have pics of the old way the tank was set up in my galbut ill post new ones of the set up now when i can my laptop is acting up right now
