Under Tank Heating

[PitOnTheProwl]

Your girl wont gain weight at all if she doesnt have proper temps, As for hydrofarm, Again i suggest agasint it, this is for plants... nor animals! they can be off by a few degrees, and dont have nearly the safety features as a Vivarium electronics/Herpstat by spyder robotics! For roughly double the price you are getting 1000000x quality thermostat! unless you need right away, yes use hydrofarm as temp but i wouldnt suggest using as a main one!

Those are proper temps.... If hes using a Heat tape for his heat, if he doesn't have high 80's for a "hot spot" his snake will not grow because it would become ill!

I know a few people who Just heat room with no hotspot's to 86 day/82 night but most people do not do that, and air temp/ambient is what there room is so they require the hotspot to let snake digest.

I would like to know where you think you gathered this information from.
My suggestion is to find a new source quickly.
As far as Hydrofarms, it is the same thermostat that Zoomed sells so your thought process there is off too.



FloridaAlicat you can get off a lot cheaper with THG tape and a good stat.
I am using a Helix on my tall rack, I have VEs on my other 3 racks and incubator, and hydrofarms on my hatchling and QT racks.
What ever you use for an UTH source you want to make sure its regulated.
You could also use back heat also.
