Default Finished My New VIV panoramic style (picture heavy)

Just added most of the last few bits to my new vivarium that will be housing a Royal Python
Here are some pictures of it at the moment, only thing left to be fitted is the light guard. (i think most is covered)
It is a 36x24x24 and is an panoramic style vivarium


























Most of the stuff was brought from Scales And Fangs in Leigh-on-sea (Rob) including the Vivarium that got made to the size for me, plus everything inside apart from thermostat and thermometer and i already had these when my royal was in a RUB.
now i just want to thank Rob and all members of staff for all the help they have given me and what a great friendly bunch of people.
I have been to pretty much every shop in Essex and brought various bit of off each of the shops, (as i do shop around a bit) and i decided to spend the majority of my money in Scales And Fangs just because i think it is the cleanest tidiest non smelliest reptile shop around, plus I like a reptile shop when every reptile is thoroughly looked after within the shop, which i appreciate. Best shop in my eyes, and i will be buying my beardies from there aswell.
Thanks
Tyler

Thanks for the comments.
I have had the vivarium running for about a week now and the temps have been spot on, even when the temps drop for night time and then back up to day time they are still very stable. I have been checking the max a min most of the time and that's perfect plus I have alarms set up if something happens with the temp that should not and they haven't gone of.

Looks really good

Just one thought though, is the heat bulb going to be controlled by a pulse thermostat, because if so this can lead to the bulb flashing on and off and shorter life span (as well as annoying disco effect!). I use dimmer stats on my heat bulbs so that it doesn't flash on and off.
