Which option is best

[shan4404]

I've read both options and pros and cons of each but which is the better option to keep my temps high for the basking area in my tanks; uth with thermostat or a strong enough lamp and bulb to reach temp?

I have a 20 gal year old python tank and a 40 gal corn snake tank. I'm finding it hard to come by answers every time I try this forum..

Either cld work. However, U wld wnt a reostat for the lamp. And the lamp may not be a good idea, bc when it goes off, there is no heat source, and I wld be hesitant to have a light on all the time... taking into account..this is a nocturnal species (bp).. instead of bulb... try heat emitter w an appropriate ceramic housing lamp for the heat emitter and a thermostat or reostat..I dnt reccomend using heat emitters w regular lamps bc of the plastic on them.

Bottom line is.. U need to choose what method you want to work with and go with it. You know what your budget is..we do not.
