Fair enough, I just know that I taped down the foil, but I think I will cover that vent but maybe with foil temporarily until I find something that looks better to cover it lol
Lol. Yeah it doesn't always look great.

Your other question....yes, I keep water pans on the warm end. Not under the heat lamp though!

is that just for humidity reasons or is there another purpose for keeping water on the warm side?
For humidity purposes. Sometimes I put water right in the middle of the enclosure so it' nearer the warm side but not at the warmest spot.

I was actually looking at the enclosure and I was thinking of moving the water dish to the middle, the large shell type hide to the far left, and the other angle hide to the right side. This will give a flatter surface to bask on not that he bask now but might start now that the heat mat is off.
