>>Actually I want to build one display case with six compartments
Gotcha. Will each level be a single compartment or do you plan to divide each compartment into two halves? More on that later...
>>The thing I am certain of is that I want each compartment to be 5' wide.
With the exception of some plastics, most building materials come in 4' increments. What this means is that you'll likely waste A LOT of material building during the construction of this project.
Also, if this display will be six units high I would discourage you from that as well. But since you may mean that the unit will be three levels tall rather than six, I won't get into that right now.
Give me a better idea of the total size you want for each snake and I'll make my suggestions.
>>I live in Houston, Texas so it does not get all that cold for long here. However, I currently have under tank heaters as well as a low wattage above tank heat source... They have great appetites and are growing well.
I'm sure we'll be able to use your existing heating elements in your display unit. ----- Current snakes:
1.1 Gonyosoma oxycephala - (Silver/Yellow)
3.4 Gonyosoma oxycephala - (Green)
2.1 Gonyosoma janseni - (Black)
