Please dont flame me... theres so much information out there & I am a responsible, well cared for person when it comes to ANY animal. I have a custom tank which is all wood except for the sliding glass doors. I cannot use a UTH as it sits on the floor and has a wooden screen top. Would a 250watt ceramic heater work good to keep it warm at night? Trying to find ideas outside of a heating pad... daytime temps are no problem. Also, should I make a "water hide" for the water dish so he can soak before shedding and also help with the humidity and the floor being wood would help with getting water on the wood and causing damage. Its a laminate type wood floor. Thanks guys for your help!! Also will the big Eco-Terra hides work good for hides for an adult or do I need something bigger??
