What type of 30 gallon?

Not meaning to thread jack here but, is it a problem if they don't use their hides? I've had my snake since saturday and he/she has not been staying in the hides I have? She stays tucked in the corner behind the warm side hide and under some fake plants I have around it. She stays there during the day and then comes out at night for a few hours checking things out and goes right back to the same spot. She has gone into the hides but never stays in them. The do have some extra room in them but if it's not hurting anything can I keep them in there until they are snug enough if she seems ok without using them?

How many UTHs do those of you with 20L setups use? My house temps are not so stable and can range from 70-80. I'm thinking two small size UTHs, is that ok?

If you get two UTH's you need to thermostats, remember that.

I don't know if the smaller ones even reach levels of 95F.

I have three rheostats for the time being. I'm just worried about one UTH not being enough to raise the ambient. I do have two med size UTHs on the 40g right now, but I have a feeling those would be too big for the 20L.

My house stays around 70 and I'm using one medium for the warm side and one small for the cool side on my 20gal. long. I still had to use a che to get my ambient up to about 80-82 with this setup. I am using about 1-2 inches of aspen substrate so I don't know how much that is affecting me right now. Hope this helps.
