Also it would wrap a round a corner so would be 1.5ft on one side turn corner and then the other 1.5 on other side

Sounds sufficient to me as long as there is plenty of hiding spots and branches, etc. Sounds like it's going to be nice.

Either. I found I like the look of glass better since they're easier to see, and it's more fun since they seem to like to stick to it. Glass will also make it easier to maintain humidity and (at least in my experience) glass tends to hold temps at night a little better.

As long as the room doesn't get too cold you don't need any.

I got a light just to help out with photoperiod and because I think it makes the cage slightly more attractive to look at (makes them easier to find during the day). Not necessary, but kind of nice to have. I use a flourescent light bulb though, it runs a lot longer, cooler, and uses less power than regular light bulbs.
