Thank you elly, you probably don't know how much your advice is helping (on this post and my other post).
I have now decided I am a little worried about the heat pad option. My vivarium has the exo terra compact top which houses two bulbs so I will put a heat bulb in one side and a UVB bulb in the other side. I have also bought one of the light domes which I intend to put a full spectrum bulb in for the plants. The only thing left is heating for night time so I will probably have to buy another light dome for a night heat bulb, so I THINK I am set now but there will be time to change things here and there if need be when it is set up cycling (explained to me by Dan, THANK YOU Dan).
I received my vivarium by courier on Thursday and was all excited to start slowly getting everything together and I was so dissapointed, It was smashed but thats another story.
Thank you again for the help.
