Not everyone would agree with such a setup, many prefer to go with a more sterile and easy to clean setup for GTP's - and I'm not one to argue with it either, there are pro's and cons to both, but I decided to try and get something visually nice as well as practical and here is the result
All of the fixtures and pumps etc are easily removed for cleaning (nothing is glued in or anything)
and in some ways it provides a more reliable setup than the old click clack/tub arrangement.
* I have sectioned off the enclosure in an "L" shape with water on the "L" side and dry land (being large smooth pebbles) on the other.
* Medium Size waterfall in front left corner, with fogger in the water behind it.
* Lots of plastic plants.
* molded rubber background (coated with cement), providing a decent size ledge/escarpment.
* overhead UV tube and two separate heat globes one for night time and one for daytime.
* underneath the dry part of the enclosure floor is a heat mat in case its required for extra humidity or heat.
Last things to go in are some perches which I will either do out of rain forest vines or bamboo, then finally, once I've confirmed the humidity and temps are where I need them, in goes the snake
Anyway, here's some pics, I'll update the thread once the vines/perches go in and finally the GTP
