I personally use a ceramic heater so having on at night doesnt disrupt the day/night cycle. I also have it conected to a thermostata although it rarely is off. Are u using a light emiting heating globe? How cold does it get in ur area?

your heating should be set on a timer for a 12 hour cycle, i have 2 stimies that i keep on heat all the time but light should be kept stictly to a 12 hour cycle so that their day night cyle isnt interfiered with.
