    Temps during the winter/thermostats

    During the winter months, my house stays around 68 degrees. Do you think a UTH and a heat light or ceramic heater would be enough? Should I possibly plan on using 2 UTHs and connecting them both to one thermostat, putting more substrate (cypress) on the cool side to keep the temp down? What should the ambient temp be on the cool side? Any info pertaining to this would be great. FYI: using a space heater isn't an option.

    I'm looking for a decent inexpensive thermostat that won't vary too many degrees. Any suggestions?

    Also, would it be unwise to take a BP out of the tank to hold when the ambient temp in the house is around 68 degrees?
