Retic cage thoughts

[Gio]

Thank you! I ended up deciding to go with the single larger panel. My reasoning is that my retic seems to enjoy a wider temperature gradient and using two panels would make for a more narrow gradient. I’ve got two herpstat 2, one channel currently not used. If I went with two panels I’d have to get at least another herpstat 1, adding another $150 to this cage build which is already setting me back about $1100.
Larger panel will also cover about a tad less than 1/3 the length of the cage which is my ideal hot spot size.

I couldn't agree more. Plus the Herpstat can be set for a night drop. I do it with all of my cages. Even if your hot spot, dead center was 100 degrees at certain stages, she's got another 4 feet to work with on the cool side.

The night drop allows for an even further range of temps for 8-12 hours.

You are getting dialed in!
