                      | yes i cut slots in the backdrop. i work for a glass company so i UV bonded the glass shelves to the viv, i also polished the edges of the glass and toughened them to make them safe for my snake :) |

                      | That is looking fantastic. No, fantastic doesn't cover it - amazing! I have the same hide that you do on the left (I actually have 2 as my contrary madam of a snake needs one on the warm and the cold side of her viv - all 18" of it, lol!) |

                      | Very nice -just one thing - the glass shelves. Snakes find glass really difficult to crawl on, there's nothing to grip, and they just wriggle in one place. I was planning to but blobs and strips of aquarium sealant on the piece of glass, I was going to put over the warm end, to make grips for them.  |

                      | Ah, good one. That will look cool as well, I thought about reptile carpet, but grass mat will be much easier to clean, should he divide to , erm, mark his territory :-) |
