New Enclosures!

[Minkness]

Ok, so, as some of you know I scored big on some 2nd hand enclosures off Craigslist. They are a matching set of 36x20x13 (Length/depth/hight). They have ventilation holes in the back, bit otherwise is pretty closed. No odea what maker or brand they are, but they are great! Easily stackable, front opening, woth light fixtures inside...and my favorite color!!!

The woman I got them from said thT they were orriginally $200 each....I got both of them, 2 appropriately sized UTHs, 2 hides, some mopani wood, water dishes, and a climb all for just $120!!! All of that stuff combined is over $500!!!

So, I got the 2 new enclosures scrubbed down and put them where they need to go and all plugged in and set up. Put Moko and Amara in them and played some musical tanks by moving 2 of my female leos into Moko's old tank and one of my male hoggies into a 10 gallon from a 5 gallon, and my little temporary rescue into the little tub that the male was in.

It's feeding night as well, soooo....we'llsee who eats. Though I randomly offered Amara a live mouse to see if she'd take it...no different than her usual self. Stopped exploring, slammed the mouse down, then went right back to it lol. Offered one to moko, he said "Uh...yeah....don't think so...." lol.

They look so small in these new tanks!!!

Also, tried out the lights that were in them and they burn HOT and kind of bright (I'm actually pretty light sensitive myself). They also seem to think that the bulbs are their personal jungle gym, which scares me a bit since Moko is NOT a light guy and Amara won't be light for long. (Pun totally intended...har har har...). So, does anyone have suggestions on a cooler temperature light that is strong enough to handle an adult BP? Or should I just remove the bulbs completely and leave them unplugged? I really preffer white light as well.
