Designing a new room for my ball pythons, I'm going to use back heat, and will be building two racks for them (one for adults 28quart sterilite tubs, and one for babies shoebox 12 quart). Each will be 10 tubs high and two tubs wide, I'd like to use a single theormostat with 10inch wide heat tape for the larger tubs and only 3 inch heat tape for the smaller tubs. This is where my questions is, can I combine the two different size heat tapes and will this work? Thanks for the feedback...



Further info to avoid questions, I'm using back heat as the ambient room temp is 82 with other boa and monitor cages emmiting heat into the room. Thanks again for the help.
