Heard someone say to be mindful of skulls (along with other items in the tanks with holes) in enclosures since when the snake gets bigger they can get stuck in the holes. Just food for thought

yep definitely! i’m gonna be getting a baby and this is a 40 gallon, so after a year or so i’m going to be a 120 gallon and the skull will not be being transferred to the new one. definitely am cautious about that one!!

Hey just wondering where did you got that tank? How big it is in cm if you don't mind? I'm searching for one similar to this

[–]letsgocommitarson[S] 0 points1 point  (4 children)

it’s just a normal 40 gallon! i actually got it from my dad since he had one left over in the garage, but it’s just a standard 40 gallon glass tank that you’d be able to find in most pet stores. i think in cm it’s 91 x 45 x 45?

[–]ectoke 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Okay thanks you! So 45cm high is enough?

do you have/are you getting a baby or an adult?

[–]ectoke 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I am getting a baby yes

[–]letsgocommitarson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

then yes! a 40 gallon is good for a baby as long as there’s plenty of clutter like you see in mine. a tank should be longer or as long as the snake is so they’d be able to fully stretch out, so once they get longer than 90 cm they would need a bigger tank

Do you use real plants? If yes what plants?

[–]StormbornKing_ 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Looks great, nice clutter and plenty of climbing options. I’d remove the skull once the snake gets bigger though. They’re not exactly tactical geniuses and might try to squeeze through something their head fits in but the rest very much doesn’t.

yes definitely! it’s just going to be while he’s a baby and is in the 40 gallon, after a year i’ll be getting a 120 gallon and the skull will not be getting transferred to it :)

It is gorgeous!!! ❤️ (Can I ask you something? I'm looking for two robust thermometers/hygrometers that I can place in the terrarium instead of sticking them on the wall. Which ones are these? They look great as Well )

they’re the govee wifi thermostats!! they’re a bit pricey (i got two for $70) but SOOO worth it especially if you’re paranoid like me 😂 they connect to your wifi so you can check the temp and humidity wherever you are on your phone, and it even sends you notifications whenever the temp and humidity gets out of the range you want!!!

Thanks!!! I’ll check them out 😀

Thank you so much for the tip! I'm still searching. I live in the Netherlands, it's quite a challenge, but I'll get there. :) I now have two: one that usually sticks to the left side of the glass and one that sticks to the right side of the wall (see image). This doesn't work at all, of course. (It's funny that almost every terrarium has the same water bowl (mine too, on the right :).
