    Tub Heating..

    I just moved my carpet python into the largest tubs available. Those christmas tree ones.

    Now that She's all moved in, im finding it hard to keep the ambient temperature fairly warm inside the tub.

    What are some ways I could better insulate and/or heat the ambient temperature in the tub? I already have a space heater in the room.

    This might seem obvious but can you move everything into a smaller room? I keep all my reptiles in two different walking closets. Initially I had planned to keep them in a spare bedroom but keeping them heated, especially during the winter was costing me a fortune with 3 space heaters running full blast.

    Radiant heat panel on a thermostat should do the trick! Good luck.
