^bigger one

The water marks will come off if you scrape them with a razor scraper.

Cant see the pictures??

Wait, still fixing it!

Does he only have 1 perch?

I tend to give my guys a few spots to perch. That way they can choose the heat level they want.

Vinegar takes off water marks fairly fast.

Agree with Kat, offer some more perches at different levels across the width of the enclosure - looking good so far tho

Here's the bigger enclo, I'll try using a razor again. Thanks!

I'm still going to be adding some more, don't worry I also placed vinegar already, but then even soaking the cage for about 2 hours it removed a lot, but not everything yet. But I'm planning on doing a 2nd try when I have time already

Also for the water bowl, I plan to change it because it doesn't seem to match the environment hehe

Beautiful snake, I want to add one to my collection before too long. If the razor or vinegar do not work on the water stain there is a product called Lime-Away that dissolves calcium deposits almost immediately but it is very strong stuff! Back when I was a dishwasher at a Doughnut shop i use to use it on the coffee pots.

By strong is it safe then for use with pets? hahaha thy really are beautiful snakes, best for me

[Theweinz]

Not safe to use WITH animals but get the water stains off and then clean the cage completely with mild soap and water, then rinse several times with hot water. Like I said, I used it on coffee pots, but just had to put them thru a wash cycle before they were ready for human/animal use. Good luck.

i would give it branches/perches that run the full length of the tank,from left to right,at different heights

that way it can perch at the temp it desires

i would also add perches,from the back,to the front of the tank,cool,middle and hot end

this will give the snake plenty of options,regards temperature gradient

it's a good looking tank you have there

cheers shaun
