My plan is to hook up an ambient lighting system to his tank so that maybe he will bask on the rocks and that a bit more during the 'daytime'. Does anyone here have experience with this? Other than the not being out he seems to be fine, eating normally and I can see he is not shedding right now which makes sense, he just wants to hang out on his heat mat it seems.

Can anyone suggest a good ambient lighting system that I could use to make it more realistic in the tank so that maybe I can see the snake during the day more often? Or anyone with a better suggestion, please feel free to let me know how silly I am being
