How would one go about cleaning this tank, and how often?

Getting my first ball python in a lil and this was super helpful, especially the little tips and tricks along the way. Much appreciated!

I didn’t even think to add leaf litter for humidity purposes. I use it only for my bioactive gecko tanks. I haven’t done bio active snake tanks because of how robust they are with plants. But this was an amazing tutorial and will be giving this a shot. I should’ve been using reptisoil these coconut husk substrates do dry out and idk why people praise them. Thank you!!

Yeah leaf litter is amazing plus it really makes the tank look good. My snakes haven’t really messed up the pothos since it’s so resilient that’s why it’s my fav. Yes! I don’t know why everyone loves coco substrates. I tried them many times in the past and they just do not work well.

Thank you again for another super video! 👏💕

Great information, and I appreciate how you don't overcomplicate matters. I'm preparing a bioactive 20g long tank for a baby Children's Python. I've read varying reports of their native habitat, and it appears that most likely they hail from dryer, hotter locales. Would you adjust this mix slightly to accommodate a drier environment? That being said, I'm wondering if this mixture could be perfect since we are located in Southern Arizona, and our home is quite dry. I think I'm foregoing the drainage level. I am utilizing some cuttings from my own personal plants but will keep the plant growth to a minimum rather than being overrun by greenery. Thanks in advance!

I’m not a fan either I have tried it but it’s just wayyyy too dusty.

So with this tank every time you spot clean or feed you have to remove the light and heat bulb to get access...

Exactly my complaint. Idk why they sell it as a starter kit for all snakes as well. The lizard starter kits are all front opening yet snakes get this lol

Just curious, say you had a top opening tank and just laid it on its side.. would work?

@ChiefSweetsUniverse

Ай бұрын

No you’ll just have to use it as a top opening. The lights wouldn’t go through glass very well too much hassle and could be unsafe

Can you explain a video on day and night light cycle

Alright, I know this is about ball pythons but could you use this design as a lizard enclosure just maybe a bit of a bigger tank? If yes please give me a list of lizards. Also this is the best channel!!! Keep uploading!!!❤❤❤❤

@ChiefSweetsUniverse

2 ай бұрын

Oh yeah you can definitely keep some lizards in this style. You could add the sand into the reptisoil make the water dish smaller a leopard gecko would do totally fine in this. They aren’t as arid as most people think. Pac-Man frog would work as well. Lots of skinks would like this as well. Thank you so much for the kind words

What’s a budget option for reptisoil trying to help my sister in law set hers up while trying to keep her spending to a minimum due to her parents not wanting to spend too much so they probably wouldn’t appreciate us buying 30 dollars worth of dirt I will be helping along the way to make sure the snake is well taken care of as it is a rescue just trying to find other options

Top soil and play sand Home Depot. Make sure top soil is manure and fertilizer free. Cost like $10. Do the whole bag of top soil and 1 gallon of sand and you’ll have a great mix

I have a question I am aware that ball pythons need humidity however, wouldn’t that cause mold/ fungus ? I’m genuinely confused here. If it does cause mold/ fungus, how can one prevent that ? As you can see I’m new to this, I want a snake eventually but I probably won’t get one for a while until I figure out what I need to be able to give them a good/ healthy as possible home :)

What about pine needles instead of leaves??
