The Build

do have some heating questions

1) will i need the heater running when i get my plants in, or just run the lights ?

2) i have two heat mats, both lucky reptile, 26 x 27.5cm & 51 x 15cm, which one is better, the 51x15 fills far more vertical space and sits comfortably on my side, the 26x27.5 fills more square and just overlaps my side background (also if this one is better, better to place it closer to substrate or to the top ?)

got this netting for just over £1 for a 1mx1.2m to use as substrate divider, the other stuff i got was 2mm gauge holes

and here's one of those size ratio photos to give perspective of the gauge of the mesh

so, got the email to say my plants and critters are on their way, so i thought i'd better make them a nice bed to live in, since i've taken these i've added my moss sludge to certain parts of vines and background
