i used double light fixture with two zilla 150 night bulbs because they produce the most heat and keeps his temps high day and night.also did the 2liter upgrade for his reptifogg and its all controlled by hygrotherm controller, when he feeds he coils on his reptile hammock and strikes the food and hangs from it upsidown.
he was in a 55gallon tank hated it he never came out of his hide. he would try to climb up but his enclosure didnt allow it so i got a tall one and hes out every night around the same times to bask and drink and romp all over his flex branches and house.(the daytime lights were just to show the enclosure):D

I have been wanting to switch over to a taller tank for Mikey, my wlp, but have yet to find one that I care for. I once looked at the repti-fogger, but was unsure on if it would be to wet for him.

The biggest problem with he reptifogger is the damn fan makes noise or quits very easily it's better off to make your own my friend. My wlp loves his taller enclosure he would never bask or come out often in his long short one and once I changed them he was out every day sometimes even day time hours just to explore

I noticed there isn't very many hides on the ground, perhaps you should add one or two. Also, does he spend most of his time in the vines / trees? Hows his temperament? I think this is one of everyone on the forums fav snakes amadeus :P

There use to be two hides a hanging hide he's too big now and the suction cups cant hold his chunks lol, I'm actually adding it back in with two sided tape hangers tonight I'll post some pics if it works out.. And yes he spends most of his time in the vines or hanging off the plants most the night. He does have a bit of a temper if he doesn't come to me when I open his enclosure I let him be usually.he doesnt strike much but he will let me know that he isn't in the mood to be handled. I haven't been bit yet so I'm going to keep respecting his body language.

I would never use any kind of tape in or around my snake cages. I seen a snake come in contact with tape before not pretty. It fought so hard to get off of it that it rip it own skin off. We had to put the poor thing down. After that i have never use, keep or allowed it in my snake room.

I ment it as stick on hangers, they worked but I didn't notice the hang hid was torn so I need a new one. I know what you mean about the situation happened to my friends red tail thank god it didn't damage his beloved snake.

No sir, it took me awhile to find a reputable captive bred dealer. It's a cool story they shipped him over night and the temp dropped to -20 Fahrenheit and I got him out if the package and he was bleeding out of his mouth and slobbering I picked him up and examinedbhim he was lifeless and limp.I was heartbroken. I put him on top of his enclosure back in the snake bag. About 15mins later I thought I seen him move.I hopped up took him out of the bag and put his fridged body under my shirt and sure enough he started to move and flick his tounge he climbed around my arms.we just stared at each other for about an hour.
