Hey guys:

I recently purchased a baby Red Tail Boa that is 100% het for snow. I am due to pick him up tommorrow and have a huge question and in need of advice on how to set his tank up. He/She is still small as it was just hatched in June of this year

This past weekend I actually got my hands on a huge 170 gallon tank the dimensions are 72"L x 22"H x 18"w came with a wooden cabinet stand. It was an old saltwater aquarium and this guy was just going to throw it out. Note: the boa was purchased before I got my hands on this tank.

Anyways, I would like to try and use this tank for him as I know how big I can expect him/her to get. I need help with know what temperatures I should try and keep the tank at? Humidity levels if needed? Should I use UTH, Ceramic heat emitters, UV or Heat lights or a combination of them? What type of bedding to use? Cage furnitures: hides, branches, etc?

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated
