"These mold's / fungi's are directly associated with the plant matters decomposition and humidity combined, creating the perfect micro-environment for them to flourish."
that makes sense. I just moved my BRB into a new 50 gallon enclosure, and i decided to put some branches i found in my backyard. into the tank. I soaked them with bleach, cause they were to big to fit in the oven. and about 3 days after putting these branches in, i noticed a web like material all over the tank. and it scared the hell out of me.
but after looking at the tank, i noticed it was only on the open ends of the branches(where the branches were cut). So as you said, it was probably "plant matters decomposition and humidity combined"
...I would hate to lose a $250 snake just from one spider.
