Bioactive Ball Python Vivarium: Construction, Lighting, Plants, and MORE!

An update on the enriched bioactive ball python vivarium with discussion of construction, plants, temperature/lighting, humidity, and substrate. References and details below. A second update as of January 2022:    • Arid Bioactive Setup - How to Guide   . My python was doing very well in this setup for 18 months until I moved to a new house with worse insulation where I suffered an equipment failure that allowed the temperatures to drop lower than my thermostat was set at. I have since built a new enclosure for my python that has better insulation to compensate for the larger swings in room temperature at my current address. I will post video of this new enclosure in the future when it has had time to establish. Additional details not explicitly mentioned: the DRAINAGE LAYER is leca clay pellets with fiberglass window screen over it (you can see it in the photos). The FLOODLIGHTS I am using are LED PAR38, 16W, CRI 80+, 5000K (daylight). Home Depot, Lowes, and Target all stock some variety with those specs. The LED PANELS are an Amazon product called "SAYHON 11 inch Ultra-Thin Square Recessed Lighting with Junction Box,24W 6000K." I'm not sure where I stand on the panels. They work fine, but the light they put out seems pretty blue and I bet there is a better option out there. None of the LED lights become hot to the touch so having them in the enclosure is less of a concern. That said, the gold standard would probably be to build a light compartment above and separated from the actual vivarium.
