Whats the go with keeping 2 tree snakes together? Is it generally frowned upon like pythons etc, or because these guys are smaller and eat frogs/fish, would the be safe together?

Wow I should have checked back on this thread sooner!!
Can I firstly say OMG about the pic of the blue snake - it is STUNNING!!!! I had no idea they came in blue!
On the subject of venomous - as far as the opinions here and my other research it appears if they are the worst case scenario wouldn't cause me too much trouble but realistically if you are smart (aware) and don't give it a reason or opportunity to bite you there's nothing to worry about so it's not an issue I am concerned with.
The one I saw in a store a while ago (no, it wasn't for sale!) was feeding on Platy fish, the store owner I respect his knowledge so my plan (if I get one) is to feed them platys. But I will take note not to treat them or add anything to the water in the snake's tank.
What sort of temperate range should they have? And is humidity a concern?
I leave fish in the in a shallow dish that's deep enough to only just cover the feeder.
If I have time I put the fish in tweezers or my fingers and it eats out of my hand like this.
Ive heard on here that they are rear fanged or something mildly venomous and the only way to get bitten is to literally shove your finger down there mouth.
thats pretty much the quote off what this fella said.
As I understand the major problem with feeding goldfish is that they are filthy animals bred in horrible conditions generally... also I have heard they have very high levels of thiaminase which can lead to thiamine deficiency.
