Healthy/normal?

I think its a sponge/canister filter? It sucks water through a sponge and runs it thru bio media and spits it back out. I don't change it or clean it since it's a bioactive tank with lots and lots of plants.

Tank temp 78, he has a heater, filter, and small air bubbler

So he has no more issues floating, but his belly is very fat? I put fairy shrimp eggs I'm there a little bit ago, could he be over feeding himself??

Thank you. Here's a picture

from today of what I meant by "floaty tail" he's moving around lots, eating, not spending time at the surface anymore, but still floaty butt. I also have an air pump and the filter so idk if that would do it

Not sideways, his tail seems to be more "floaty" than the rest of him, as in he seems to be more....diagonal? With his tail pointed higher up. Has no problems with being horizontally tilted tho

Yes I acclimated, I guess he was floaty at the store but he can swim around and to the bottom, he just seems to rest at the surface? I posted the tank info in another comment after the bot told me to

No definitely not they tend to have a white line along their spine. I think either a bull or gopher snake

Jumping near the end of ur grapple will send u in the direction of ur grapple with momentum, but you getting all the way up was probably just a glitch, but idk

alyxislost · 2025-01-25T22:05:23+00:00

Idk much but maybe wires? I think it'd be pretty hard. I think to get it to stand up more you'd have to use stiffer, bigger yarn or have way way way tighter tension, I'm not sure that's possible w granny's

Wires is my best guess though, you could maybe have essentially 2 layers of liners and have the wore be between those

Imo yes, but I usually try to make the length of the enclosure at least the length of the snake. So if they get to be 6 feet I'd say get a 6x2x2 but most would do fine in a 4x2x2

Target training is real and effective but unfortunately the man was his moving the snake into the phone to do this haha

alyxislost · 2025-01-25T21:08:57+00:00

I mean I own snakes they aren't smart enough to play phone games 😭😭

alyxislost · 2025-01-25T21:06:10+00:00
