Hi I got a 4ft x2ftx18inch ex viv , I am using a 250watt dark spot ceramic..my hot spot temp under ceramic is 33c but the cold end is only reading 23-24c do you think this is to cold.
When he was in his 3ft ex viv the cold end got no lower than 26.5 c |

| As long as he has the right heat on the hot end to access it'll be okay, it is cold at the moment and his cool end will raise up to a better temperature as the winter leaves us. If it drops too low you can also consider covering the cool end with a towel or something equally insulating. |

| No reason you couldn't but with two heaters in there running you may risk drying out the air more than you want could adversely effect shedding. |
