Heat at night in a WD terrarium?

CokeOfMan Apr 01, 2004 12:16 PM

Sorry for asking so much, but I gotta know soon I was thinking either a 100 or 160 ceramic heater and a 27 something heat mat. And possibly an infrared lamp? But they don't, from what I know generate so much heat right? How many ceramic heaters do you think I need?

Thanks In Advance

I only ever used a heat element at night during the winter, there temps during the summer were fine in my house. I just had one 250 watt heat element. Sometimes I used the dark purple lights at night, but some people think they might interupt the dragon's sleep. Mine didn't seem to have trouble sleeping. Nobody can tell you what you will need, you will just have to try some things and see if the temps are right.
