I just got my new (awesome) wooden enclosure for my carpet, and I have been fiddling with the heat to get everything in the correct gradient and all.

My question is this: currently the hot spot in the tank (94F) is on one of the large bamboo perches in the tank. I know he isn't a GTP, but he *loves* climbing and hanging out up there. Is having the hot spot off the ground OK, or does he really need a heated floor tile or similar belly heat to digest?

Thanks in advance!
