It might have mites. You should check for them. And from what i heard using a clay flower base pot is good for your python. you should have at least two. one from the warm and one for the cold side

If you run your hand down your snake and you see very small red or brown stuff crawling on you then he has mites.

 Finally

Well what are the temps in the cage, the two reasons that snakes stay in the water is that the cage is to hot and that they have mites. Mites are easily seen because they stick out when they get bigger. The reason it makes the mite hard to see on the BP is because the match the BP skin color.
