I'm going to buy a hatchling corn soon and I just got one of my last parts: the thermostat, in the mail.
I've got these parts:
Exo Terra Terrarium (60x45x45cm)
Komodo Advanced Heat Mat (410x274mm)
2x Exo Terra Digital Thermometer (One for the hot side and the other one for the cold side)
Habistat Pulse Proportional Thermostat 600W
Small hide
Medium Snake Cave
Water dish
Aspen bedding
Some silk foliage
(I'm probably also going to add a stick in it so the snake has some vertical moving space as well.)
I've been warming the small pile of bedding for a few hours and the temperatures are staying pretty consistent, about 24.0-24.2 on the cold side and about 28.8-29.0 degrees celsius on the warm side.
Am I missing or do I need to change anything in the viv?
I also have a bit of a question about cleaning. When I search for how I should clean my viv, I find loads of different methods; rinsing a bleach solution, with dish soap, with reptile disinfectant, with vinegar, etc. I did get some leftover "Wipe Out Terrarium Cleaner" he had laying around. though in the prescription it says that you cannot use it on ornaments, such as water bowls and hides. So, I'm wondering how to clean those then.
