Very informative! I used to have TONS of tanks laying around. I have since sold/given away all of my herps and tanks. So my lone hognose is the only reptile I have left I kept one 10 gallon so I could use it to hold him while cleaning etc. But I was having trouble setting it up with the proper gradient with a light. The UTH worked good, but it makes sense on how they burrow to escape the heat, and that would be completely opposite for him in that situation. The crack isn't terrible, but it's unsightly. I'll keep him in it (the bigger tank), until I find a suitable replacement.

On another note, what substrate are you using for them to burrow?
