I agree. My Cal king spends most of his time buried in his substrate or "packed" into his half-log hide. I use a 20 gallon glass fish tank with a screen lid and have yet to have any problems. However, as the tank is relatively small, it is easy to maintain a stable environment (humidity, etc.). Aspen makes a great substrate for kingsnakes, since (as mentioned above) they like to burrow. It's also reasonably cheap and easy to clean.
