I have mine currently in a 20g and he's a big boy.

And the large tanks are harder to heat. And the lamps kill humidity. When mine housed bps I had to spray it more frequently.... and kept the water under the lamp. But I had the lamp on a dimmer and also used a UTH so it didn't have to always burn as hard. I switched to smaller tanks because of the bulk of the 55g mainly... it was really in the way, very heavy and a little because of the extra maintanence.
It can be done... and can work just fine. Some people are just way too anal about things....
No offense to the anal
Thanks, I think I'll go with the plexi/silicone solution, seems fine.

My BPs are ~23 inches long, so still quite small, it should be ok.

I'm actually having the two of them in the same 55g tank, and it seems ok to maintain temps and humidity. But I think I'll just keep two UTH heat the two separate sides of the tank once divided. Ambient light should be fine too.
