I ordered some stuff on ebay last week and got it in the mail a few days ago. I got a great deal :)...I got a monsoon rainfall system, exo terra waterfall, feeding dish, hide, and zoo med 50w 23ft. heater cable all for 80$. I set up the monsoon rainfall system nd waterfall in my BCI tank. I'm hoping to get some poison dart frogs soon and I will be moving the rainfall system and taking the pump from the waterfall for them if I do get them. Anyways, this is what his enclosure looks like right now.

That looks well cool cleaning will be a pain. Lucky snake.

Thanks :) and cleaning actually isn't that bad.. I just spot clean whenever he drops his load, wipe down the glass every once and a while, change the substrate every few months, and once or twice a year I take out everything and clean everything with a bleach solution and rinse the intire tank down and put all new substrate in

I like the whole set up, nice one at least you have put some thought and effort into it I personally prefer a set up like yours to just tubs.

(not for those with a lot of snakes but if you have 1,2,3 yeah why not)

Thanks, but I'm still not completely satisfied with it yet. Idk why it just doesn't look right to me, but it will have to do for now. Hopefully I'm going to be moving him into his permanent home within the next year. I want to buy (or build) and enclosure that will hold both of my snakes. I want The intire thing to be 6' long 4' tall and at least 2' deep and then I would split it so it's one tank onto of the other so it would be 2 6'X2'X2' enclosures. One for my boa and one for my corn :).

you can always add a background to provide more privacy for your snake and to make your setup more natural
