Hey guys, I my ball python setup is almost complete. I have a 20L with eco-earth. A water dish, two hides. And then a small little plant and another one that sucks onto the side purely for decoration. I have a zoomed heat pad on one side and then a 60W CHE on a dimmer very low on the middle. My hot side on the heat mat can read up to 96 if it is pushed into the eco Earth a tad, but only 89 if it resting right on top. The CHE makes a perfect heat gradient all the way down to 77 on the cool side. I have seen some people say that 95 is too hot some say it is not if they can have a spot to cool then down. I would like to know your guys ideas.
Is 95 too hot, even if they have any where else to cool down? If so should I get a second dimmer for the heat mat? Or should a regular misting from time to time bump the temp down a bit? Also remember, if the probe is just on top of the eco-earth it reads just under 90. Thanks guys!
