Question on GTP Neo setup
So I'm considering grabbing a chondro (possibly two). My quarantine rack is currently setup for balls with flexwatt (belly heat) and a herpstat. From what I have read I'm aiming for high 80s to low 80s heat gradient, which I know I can achieve. The question I have, is belly heat suitable for an animal that will be in a perch most of the time? Should I move the flexwatt to the top of the shelf and try to get my heat gradient that way? Or does it really matter at all, so long as the proper heat gradient is established?
I plan to use 12qt sterilite tubs for the first year and move to an arboreal display cage after a year or so.
Any thoughts, opinions, anything?

I would go with back heat personally, also i would aim for mid to low 80's to 78 for the gradient. Also i would go with a 6qt tub for the first year. Good luck.
