Ambient temperature

[Josh_Gratte]

Hey all I have heard a lot of different answers regarding this question on the net and would like to hear from a keeper. What should the ambient temperature be in my ackie enclosure? Thanks heaps

Temperature gradient, i'd imagine, so 35 basking spot 30 hot end - roomtemp(20) cold end

Basking spot for ackies need to be at least 40 to 45 they luv it hot

Basking spot minimum 50 I go for around 60. Hot end 30-35, middle 30, cool end 30- 23

Incorrect imagination can kill reptiles. If you dont know, dont imagine, as it can be fatal!

I stand corrected, mine seem to be doing fine at 35+-5, but if i can improve I may have to look into that , thanks

No offense mate but I don't know about you standing "corrected", your 35+-5 basking spot temperature is definitely way too low for ackies!
