I'm defiantly loving the advice and will put a lot of it to use. All I'm saying is, when I look at my snakes natural environment, there isn't paper covering the ground. I'm replicating its environment. Not saying there is anything wrong with using it, I'm just takin a different route. And I have made a decision. 1/4 gravel false bottom where the uth will be and 3/4 egg crate false bottom..
