Thanks! I really did a lot of research, asked tons of questions, and read 2 or 3 books before I finally took the plunge. I think I debated about 6-7 months before finally committing myself. Although, I did kind of go against alot of what I had read and heard with my initial set-up. However, it is now all fixed, and soon Tabitha will be moving into a new 20L tank!!!Originally Posted by blackcrystal22
As for the OP.
You seem to know things pretty well for being a new snake owner. The substrate can make a difference of 2-3 degrees, so 95 is perfect under the substrate. Through the glass it can be 10 degrees sometimes.
Generally, your setup sounds pretty good. You can keep a lamp as long as the humidity is alright and you have a dimmer so it doesn't affect the temperatures much (except if you need better ambient air temperatures, which it can help).
Good luck!
