Need some help deciding..

ok, I'm not sure on the Economy racks, but every other AP product has a slot for your thermostat probe, so I assume that they do as well.

Unless you are breeding I wouldn't even bother with the night drop functionality.

As long as you don't have more than 350 watts then you don't need to worry about wattage (thats 17.5 feet of 11" flexwatt) all you do to figure it out as take the thermostats max wattage and divide by the Wattage per linear foot that the flexwatt is (11' = 20 watt per Linear foot, 3" comes in 6 watt and 10 watt versions, 4" is 8 watts)

did I cover everything?

Spider robotics probably will have some useful instructions on setting up the herpstat; I'm sure you can set day and night temps. It should also include placement of the probe. But from my understanding the probe is place on one of the heat tape sections where the snake is housed. You should still use a temperature reader on the interior of the tank where the snake is housed.

I would suggest this because the plastic bin will absorb some of the energy emitted from the heat tape. Therefore the temperature on the tape might read 95 and the temp inside the bin on the same spot might read 93. These aren't exact number, I'm just theorizing.

So i just had a thought.... I REALLY don't need a 41 quart rack... AND I would be able to get the 32 quart one cheaper. I have 2 adult BP's one who isn't even heavy enough or "big" enough to go inside a 41 yet. And if she does outgrow it before I get one. (She's a bad eater...) I can always put her in a tank.

So basically... WOULD the 32 quart be the same as the 41? Just a nit smaller and cheaper? If so I'll purchase one of those then.

You could probably get away with a 32qt rack, for about the same price as the economy 41, you might even be able to get an 32qt enclosed rack.

So...I'm going to go with the 1755(7) 7Tubs

Should I do Back heat, Belly heat, or indirect belly heat? I was thinking belly..

[The Serpent Merchant]

I like belly heat personally.

I know that feeling, but when your giant box arrives and you are putting it together that feeling will be all gone
