I need enclosure help!!!!!

[Newtot]

Ok so I want a baby boa soon. And I bought a 32 qt tub, uth and thermostat. Now my question is, my room is room temp and I can't heat the entire room or I can't sleep. How can I get the ambient temp up if it's to low. I haven't set the tub up yet but planning to soon.

How cold are we talking? If it's in the low 70s with the uth for a hot spot, should be fine. Otherwise you might be better off buying a slightly older animal that's already big enough to go into an enclosure with a RHP. The RHP will raise the ambient temperature of the cage in addition to providing a basking spot.

Pardon my ignorance but what is a RHP?
