Heat Pad Question on 6ft vision

rottenweiler9 Nov 16, 2008 09:07 PM

What size Kane Heat pad would I get for a 6 ft vision cage? Would I make it 1/3 of the cage, that what I am guessing just want to make sure.

That should work but those things crank out a ton of heat so make sure you have a very reliable thermostat (like a Spyder Robotics). I prefer Pro Product Radiant Heat Panels for my burms and large herps - more surface area, better heat, and less chance for overheating.
