    Heating and Lighting for my 48" Neodesha cages.

    So I purchased 3 48" Neodesha luxury reptile cages with sliding glass doors and a cage rack.
    NOW, I need to decide how to heat it and light it up!

    My first thoughts:
    Hotspot Heating: 3 Heat mats, (UTH), one for each cage placed outside the cage underneath one side of the cage. Controlled by a dimming thermostat (herpstat)
    Ambient Heating: Already taken care of, as my snake room is temperature controlled.
    Lighting: LED dome lights placed on top the ceiling screens, to give a nice light without heat or without any wires or objects inside the cage for the snakes to vandalize. (I have NO IDEA what style to buy).

    I am open to any other ideas, especially on lighting ideas, as I am already pretty sure the UTHs are ideal in my case, as RHPs would be overkill, since my entire snake room is heated.
