radiant heat panel recommendations
hey all
I recently set up my first herp tank which is a 2x2x1 pvc BP cage. After trying a few things over the past week to bring the cold side ambient temp up unsuccessfully and with some research it is apparent a radiant heat panel is required for my setup. The room temp ranges from 68-72f right now. I rent a basement apartment so I don't have control over the room temp. That is just the average swing through the day. I have occasionally woken up to 64f inside. With the middle of winter fast approaching I want to get the right heat setup. Despite the un-ideal cold side temps my BP seems to be quite happy and content in his home. I picked him up a week ago yesterday and have successfully fed him twice, last tuesday and today. But I'm still not satisfied with his living conditions long term, just happy he isn't stressed over it like I am. My question is what size of heat panel do I need and what brand(s) would you recommend? This will be connected to a herpstat to regulate the temperature.
