    Re: How to set up a PVC cage (AP T8) With Pictures!

    Hey guys (new to the forums!)
    I am in the same boat as many of you out there and I just want to be 100% correct in the way I am doing things based on what I have read on this forum.

    I recently just purchased two T8's with, 1 Flexwatt and a fluorescent light for each. Do you think that is adequate for maintaining ambient temperature and belly heat? I keep the room around 71-73 throughout the entire year.

    Also, I am unsure how I need to go about getting/using a Herpstat and which one I will need. Is it possible to only use 1 Herpstat for both cages? I got the impression that Herpstats can control the lighting as well? Am I able to set the lights to come on and off at a certain time each day using the Herpstat?

    Last one . What exactly will I need? By that I mean which Herpstat, how many temperature gauges, ect. I understands 1 probe goes between the Flexwatt and the tank. Any suggestions on which temperature gauge I should get to record the ambient and belly temp in the tanks?

    Thanks in advance!
