I've had him about 2 weeks, so that's probably part of the reason for so much hiding.
Sorry i guess i didn't explain well enough, im moving my entire setup to my friends apartment, so the lamp and everything will go there, and yea i was gonna wait at least a day or two, but three is probably safer
speaking of a thermostat is there one you would recommend? my rack will house 3 full grown BPs and will have flexwatt tape.
