Those look like bearded dragon cages. I don’t recommend heat lamps for snakes, even pythons. They need belly heat in order to bask and digest properly.

You’re cool man. I couldn’t even tell you were in a bad mood 
Anyways, as far as a waterfall goes, I don’t think a carpet would go for that sort of thing. It would raise up the humidity too much and it would probably be too much hassle for what it’s worth. I think waterfalls belong mostly in chondro, turtle or tree frog cages :)

Diamonds have a rep for much shorter lifespans if kept at carpet python temps. Even with a hybrid, I’d worry about overheating. You might want to play it safe and provide all options, with a big well-ventilated cage that offers a warm enough warm end for a jungle but extends further away toward coolness than seems "necessary." Hell, even my coastal was usually warm enough at 76 degrees, and I often hear of people giving their (pureblooded, at last) diamonds a cool end in the 60s. Here’s something I just started playing around with for another usually-low-temperature snake that you might be able to work into a decent cage for yours, albeit with very different props. The only catch is that the frame is very light, so you’d have to make sure that any branches had some kind of additional support.Click Here
