Thank you both! That thermostat is definitely a good price, I am going to bookmark it for when I start buying my materials.
ENGINEE837 What thermostat do you use? I really like that cage btw! I have never heard of Melamine, I'll have to look into it. Is it easy to drill into?
When you use heat tape, do you have to place anything between the tape and the cage? I have used it on pipes before but never on a terrarium, just wondering how hot it gets...
