Im assumsing your tslking about the grest stuff method. In which case it is essentially great stuff foam sprayed on the backround (if a glass tank you have to smear back with GE silicone II first and allow to cure, other types of silicone may be toxic when cured). After the great stuff foam has dried fully you apply silicone to the foam, and press dried expanded cocnut to the backround, working in small sections at a time.

I've actualy wondered the same, ive never heard anyone tell of using it for snakes, and im not sure how it would hold up to all the rubbing. Anyone here used this backround for snakes?
