Though I am new to this hobby, I would recommend buying a nice quality thermostat even if it is expensive. You can skimp in other areas like hides, water dishes, substrate, etc. That is something I wish I had done while setting up my BP's viv.
I have been very happy with my Remptitemp 500R but I have tanks so I just use one on each tank!
