I plan on using a suitable substrate (aspen seems most consistently recommended) and providing more than adequate "hide" space. But with such a pretty animal, I am also looking to have a pretty enclosure.
yes i nunderstand you want to display the animal.
There is a poster here who uses small fine gravel (he calls it sand, but it is course) as a medium that has worked for him in the past years. He has some pretty nice living room setups . Maybe he will chime in and post some of his pics.
IMO you need a better medium than aspen to make it "nice". If for anything just to view the snakes since they will just tunnel in it.. But nobdoy can tell you what looks/works best to you. Try the small gravel (I forget the size #). It absorbs well enough and is easy to scoop up dry feces. I see several zoos use this size gravel in their displays.

A king may move a man, a father may claim a son. But remember that, even when those who move you be kings or men of power, your soul is in your keeping alone. When you stand before God you cannot say "but I was told by others to do thus" or that "virtue was not convenient at the time." This will not suffice.
