It looks like a fire hazard, with that towel underneath the heat lamp.

Nice looking setup, but as Swampwalker said, you might want to move that towel.

background

Just there for the picture. I have no wall paper on the viv and the flash was killing the whole pic.

Hides

Along with the black hide in the corner and the 2-4 inches of coconut substrate. That is plenty for a baby corn.
I actually turned the rock on its side and this is another hide.

Lid

Normal lid, fits over top, keeps animal inside. Works good.

A caution on the lid - we use them for all our tanks and they do work well when the snake is too small to get up to the top, but they do have quite pronounced gaps at the sides of the door panel that a snake can push through once they are big enough to get near the top (they strectch across below the lid to the door). We also found a honduran halfway through on the side (he got between the lip on the tank and pushed the side of the lid up - amazing how flat those guys can squish themselves) and we have used weights on these when snakes are intermediate size, until they are too big to get through the gaps that are present.


very nice naturalistic setup - bet your corn loves it. Does he use the branches much?

Lid

I agree, The lid is a poor choice if your animal is small and able to get up to it. The corn in there is 17 1/2 " and she uses the branches more than the ground. I will get a few pics when i see her up there next.
