Reptile Thermostat Able to Control Multiple Temperatures?

[StephenT]

First of all, I own three snakes: two corn snakes and a ball python. I have them all on two levels of racks, the corns below and the ball above, so I have two seperate units of heat tape. Having two different species means I need two different hotspot temperatures. Does this mean I should buy two seperate thermostats? Are there thermostats that can control multiple different temperatures? I use an on/off thermostat at the moment (Zilla 1000 Watt). Thanks in advanced.

You can get a single proportional t-stat that will handle different temp zones. I use both Herpstat and VEs on my enclosures and you can't go wrong either... both in terms of products and excellent customer support.

You really should consider housing them in separate racks altogether, imo. The bp is a tropical temp species reptile where as the corn snakes are temperate species. Their flora and fauna is very different. Then mostly, your racks heat tape wattage will be different depending on the size of the tape as well. 3" as opposed to 6" tape or 11". Yeah, some thermostats can handle different wattages of tape for varying heat zones but there is a safe difference that you should check with the manufacturer on. Good luck.

If the heat tape of each shelf is controlled separately then there shouldn't be a problem with them being in the same rack right?
Herpstat 2 can monitor and control 2 separate enclosures or racks at different temps. They have a herpstat 4 that does the same but with 4
