Hey Doug, as you know I am pretty new at this too. I will tell you what I have done with my new babies and you can tell me if it is sufficient or not. This might help MayFlower26 decide how he/she wants to do it.

I use a 30 long tank, with aspen substrate, with heat pad on one side. I use two hides. One hide on the hot side with dry moss, setting half way on the heater, to give multiple heat area's, inside or out. One hide on the cool side with wet moss. Hot side 87 to 89 Cool side 71 to 74 Maybe cooler in the wet moss. I figure it give them plenty of places to hide at the temp of there choosing. Also they get acclimated to the space they will be in when they get bigger. What do you think, Doug?

DAVY
