Thanks for the welcome! I do have a pretty sweet temperature gun I use for my tortoise pen, so I'll be using that quite a bit probably!

What kind/wattage heat bulbs do you use? Do you use anything at night? I live in San Francisco without a real heater so I'm trying to figure out the night heat situation too. Need to keep the little guys toasty! I'll be using an exo terra tank that's 18x18x24 and I believe it comes with a canopy fixture. Any suggestions?
