The main problem with the setup is the height as it means there is a lot of air to heatbefore any of it gets down to the animals.

I would be tempted to try moving the RHP to the center of the viv ceiling and use it to provide the ambients and then use a UTH ( again on a thermostat or other control device ) to provide the warm spot.

How would you secure the UTH ? Assuming you use heatmats, the problem is that she is very active and as a result keeps even digging into substrate when moving so clearly I need to avoid having the heatmat directly under the substrate - would a thin sheet of wood work ?!?

I need to try to make those vivs work - they weren't cheap and I don't have enough room to add even more vivs and use them for different snakes or something ...
