8. You do not need light at all. It actually will stress your bp out. Get a CHE or UTH instead
I was under the impression you need to create a day/night cycle hence the need for a lights, and as for the heating I was under the assumption that the heat lamp is this red lamp that snakes can't see. I am wondering if one of those is good ( I am going to buy an adult BP so he'll happily settle into a 3 foot by 1.5 foot vivarium ) for keeping the enclosure hot and I was also wondering if that heat lamp should be switched off at night and switched back on in the morning.
