What type of Tank? If it is opened from the top all the snake sees is a big predator swooping down to him. It should be fine to catch him and hold him for a while other wise he will not get used to you. Plus once you have hold of him you can thoroughly search the viv for droppings, they will be small and in corners. |

You'll probably find that he calms down once you've held him for a few moments. Just go for it, he'll get used to being handled and will settle down given time. Some take longer than others so don't worry. |
