As to height if your doing a heat panel you don't need much height. I made mine 18"and it works great. BP's aren't natural climbers. Check out my builds for tips.
Your cages look great! I really like the black on the inside of the BP cages, it looks very nice. I'm thinking 80 watts for the heat panel.
