I have flexwatt for the bottom of the tub and a heat pad if I need it. I just need to get some rheostats and I should be set. I also have a taylor inside/outside thermometer so I can get the temps correct before I put him in the tub. One more quick question. Would a light dimmer work with a foot of 4" flexwatt or do you guys suggest a rheostat designed for reptiles. Thanks. Oh and I am just moving the 2 identical hides, water dish, half log, and climbing logs into his tub so he should adjust quickly.
