    Make sure to cover up at least the back (and the sides too if possible) with something dark (black construction paper works well).

    How is humidity remaining?

    Edit: Also, log hides aren't the best, but if you make one side inaccessible by having it against the wall (when the side glass is covered with something dark) you could pass it off. Make sure your hides are all tight and secure around the snake!

    humidity is 55 right now on hot end and 59 on cool end..but like i said a lil replies up at night the cool side really jumps up..So you think i should a those backround paper?? i put those hanging plants around the tank to make it covered..I think im confused.. AND I'll add more subrate in his rock hide now.. he really like to climb on top of all those plants along the edges and hangs out their often..

    The greenery is great INSIDE cover... but the snake can still feel insecure if it can see things OUTSIDE the tank. Thus covering the back and both sides on the outside of the glass with opaque paper or aquarium background. Personally, I like to use scrapbooking paper.

    Ah...steam guns are cool.

    In that case I would recommend using background made for fish aquariums. It's thin plastic so it won't be affected by the steam. Also, you could concentrate the cleaning on the INside of the tank since the background should be placed around the OUTside.

    Is that a sponge on the stick? If it is I would take it out, they can be a breeding ground for bacteria.

    I love the naturalistic look to your enclosure though, very eye-pleasing.
