... Should be here today, mums adamant she wants her in there tonight, but it's gonna need sealing.

What's the minimum time I can leave it and would using a hairdryer or fan help speed up the process?

I used aquarium sealant on mine and it said on the packet to leave for 48 hours. After I had sealed the viv I knew why, it stinks! If I can still smell it after 24 hours (and I really reeeally could) then it wouldn't be good for a snake.

I guess a fan would help to dissipate the smell quicker, but I think the packet of mine said something about curing too?? I'd be inclined to leave it as long as possible just in case.
