mine where sexed and i had mine together and there wasn't a problem with that. about the ph levels ,(after you neutrlize the water of 1drop per litre of aquarium water or 5ml per 50L) take a sample to a aquarium place and they will tell you what the ph level is or will help you get it to its right level. Even know your snakes dont breath under water , you will be puting in live fish(in small amount, remember you dont want to stress the snake's out) the fish still must stay healthy because your snake will consume them fish can catch disease pretty quick. fish benifit from a 25% fortnightly water change using water treatment and conditioner, thats where it get confusing because i was told if you change the water too much it can stress the snakes out. but there is a way , taking the water outs fine i would add the the water diluted and then poor it in very slow next to your filter so the snakes dont feel a sudden cold change, or you could have a spare heater getting the water to the right temp. most aquarium heaters have built in thermostat so you shouldn't need one for that but i still used a safety swich.

how did you go with currumbin did they give you any info on them.? ask for kurt he might still be there he's really good when it comes to that sort of thing.hes the man who looks after the reptiles and dose snake shows.
cheers steve.
