Hi, just bought Vivexotic Ex48 which is 48"x18"x24" and taking it one step at a time I have made a stand, assembled the vivarium and before thinking about decor, accessories and the beardy himself I want to get the heating and lighting right. Lighting is fine, got a 3' uvb tube and for heating got a 100w red heatlamp in a ceramic reflector fitting and a good Microclimate B1MHT 'stat which I have read is the right sort of equipment and power. However, putting it on for about 3 hours to test it I am finding the temperature is only reaching about 80 at the warm end and 70 at the cool end. Do I need further heat? The room could drop to about 60 in winter and is currently about 70 in this poor British excuse for a summer!
