Tub Setup Supplies?
I was just wondering if anyone could tell me what supplies are needed for a tub setup. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!!

In Hindu myth, Nagas are a race of serpent demons whose power comes from a jewel embedded in their throats or skulls. Their name means "those who do not walk, who creep." When the gods passed around the cup containing the elixir of immortality, the Nagas grabbed it, but spilled some drops on the ground. As they licked up the drops, the grass split their tongues, which have remained forked ever since.

I got my t-stat from MGReptiles -- http://www.mgreptiles.com/
I chose the Johnson t-stat, which is a fair-bit cheaper than a Herpestat...but WAY better than anything you'd find in a petstore. They may seem a bit pricey at first glance, but the peace of mind they offer is worth every penny and more.
If you can't wait for it to be shipped...or if its too expensive to buy today....you can always opt for an inexpensive lamp-dimmer from Home Depot or Lowes....and use that for a short spell while you save up for a good t-stat and wait for it to be shipped. I would do that before I wasted a dime on a petstore piece of junk.

I chose the one with the 6-outlet power strip. The "raw" one is just the t-stat unit without any power cords attached and you'd have to do that yourself...which can save you some money if you're experienced with that sort of thing.

Re: Tub Setup Supplies?
Let's see if this link works....it's really long! LOL
http://www.homedepot.com/cmc_upload/...s/162668_3.jpg
It's a dimmer switch that comes with a plug-in cord attached to it. You just plug your UTH into the cord and plug the cord into the wall....then adjust the switch to regulate how much electricity flows to the UTH...which then controls how hot it will get.
You'll have to play with it a bit to find out which setting yields the right temperatures...and it may need adjusting throughout the day if the room temps fluctuate much.
EDIT: Bah...that link didn't work. Lemme try something else...
Ok...that link goes directly to the picture...it's called a Lutron 300 watt Credenza Lamp Dimmer

If i can get my temps and humidity regulated i will have to wait but if all goes well i will try to get him/her soon as i can.

Re: Tub Setup Supplies?
LOL...your link did the same thing that mine did. I edited mine and put up a link to the actual picture...but I'm sure you figured that out.
Anyhow...glad I was able to help. Good luck with it. Hope you posts pics of your baby when you get him!
