Do any of you suggest using a infrared heat light. I've read a few things online suggesting these are a good source of heat for Ball Pythons. I don't think I need it but I want to be sure.

I've also considered continuing to use the daylight bulb I have but install it in a Exo Terra incandescent fixture that glows in the dark when the light is off to product a moon glow.

What do you think about any of these?

Right now the highest temp I've seen in any spot in the terrarium is 89 degrees, most places in the terrarium are around 81-84. The lowest I recorded was at 76 degrees in complete darkness. I borrowed a laser pointer infrared thermometer and it is pretty acurate. The snake was around 82 degrees.
