Newbie Ally Snapper Question

Hi everyone. After reading the forums on kingsnake for several months, I decided on buying a Ally Snapper hatchling. I was wondering if I have his tank set-up right and few other newbies Q's. He's in a 10 gallon that's at a constant 82 degrees during both the day and the night. He also has a full spectrum light for basking. Should it be warmer or is this about right? He will only eat live fish. He ignores the reptomin turtle food i put in there. He'll even ignore the decapitated remains of a goldfish he just caught and go after another live one. Any comments,tips, constructive flames would be greatly appreciated, Thank you.
