Hi I start thinking about building a garter (Thamnophis sirtalis concinnus) vivarium soon and was planning for the budget and costruction details. Did the garter need UVb lightning as they are diurn animal? or is it white light enough?

An overall viva of 24"X38"X16" with encastrate water tank 24"X11"X16" (lXdXh) in the floor, so a 24"X 27"X16" dry soil. Would it be enough for 2 garters?

I'm new in the snake captivity, got more experience with marine fishes and tropical lezard (CWD) but want the best setup for the garters and a nice looking vivarium

That's my interogations for now

Thank

Mathieu
