I agree that the viv itself can be a very straightforward affair.

The more complicated side of the setup I was thinking about, was choosing the right heating & thermostatic equipment for the type of viv you're using. Then you'll need to set it up in advance of getting the snake and tweak it for a while until you get the ideal temp gradient.

And to be honest, with the quality of equipment available these days and the array of Corn-specific web sites/mesage boards for advice, even that shouldn't be too much of a chore.
