while the 3" tape will give you the heat gradient that one desires, in my opinion, it does not offer a large enough actual basking area that some snakes require for proper eating habits. I've had some animals, if they couldn't fit their entire body on the basking site, their feeding habbits were aggrivating at the best. The 11" tape still will offer a decent heat gradient of 93/hot side, and 85/cold side in my room that is kept at 80 degrees. BTW, I use 11" tape on all my 41 qt tubs.
