I keep my diamond with a hot end of 28-30 middle at 25-26 and cool end at 23ish. I have found it helpful to have at least 2 thermometers (one near the heat, and one near the thermostat). There are many mixed opinions about UV light. I personally have a UV light on for about 5 hours a day.
I only feed Jake every 2-3 weeks, sometimes every 4 weeks depending on the size of the pevious meal.
I hope this helps. I look forward to seeing some pics soon  |
