Don't. It can burn the snake.

Re: My new tank for sauritus
Is that gravel you're using as a substrate?

Re: My new tank for sauritus
I would say hard to keep clean and impossible to burrow in. In the beginning I used rocks as well as earth and switched over to more acceptable and easier substrates. I now use shredded aspen.
Good Luck!Le Ann

Re: My new tank for sauritus
Many bought substrates also absorb moisture(feces and urates) and keep them off your snake.
They also make clean ups much easier.Steve

Re: My new tank for sauritus
I saw the snake coming towards it, touching it with her tongue and then just going away and under it, so shes not interested in going on it, the pot isnt so hot to burn anything but I will try to pull it up, out of reach of the animal anyway, thanks for advice

Re: My new tank for sauritus
yes its standard gravel as used in aquariums, I used it because when it comes to cleaning(what will have to be very often Originally Posted by Stefan-A
) I can just take it away, wash it in hot water and just put it back then.
