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

[Mr. Misha]

I'm planning on getting the T3 and am considering on getting the 11" flexwatt to go with it. That is slightly less than 1/3 of the cage.. does the flexwatt seem to heat enough to be a singular heat source? My room temp is 70-75. Would a Zoo Med UTH work better (I could get a larger one)? Either one, I'd probably use with a Hydrofarm thermostat.

Hi, my first question is why are you getting a T3 when a T8 is a foot bigger, cheaper, and will get to you quicker (since it's a "quick ship" item through AP)?

In regards to your question regarding heating, I'd recommend a RHP over the UTH because it will help with keeping ambient temps up. The UTH will just provide a hot spot but won't do too well with ambient temps.

If your ambient temperatures are ok and you're looking to provide a hot spot, you can buy heat tape from Reptile Basics by the foot (i believe it's $3/ft) and buy whatever length you want.
