for the most part, corn snakes do not bask. If you think hooking up lights will draw him out into the open more, you'll probably find it has just the opposite effect. Most of the folks around here use no lighting at all and their snakes do just fine.

I use normal room light, nothing on the cage itself. I just make sure the light in the room is on 12 hours a day and then off 12 hours a day to simulate a day/night cycle. I have put the light on a timer to make sure the cycle remains steady and I don't have to worry about remembering to turn it on and off.
