just the ceramic will be fine no need to use 2 heat sources.
i would also block up the uv wire hole's that the viv exotic viv's have just incase she gets near them.

i would leave the uv light turned off or take it out just incase she gets near it as dont want her getting burnt or breaking the bulb

Hi the guard on the ceramic got very small holes which she wont be able to get through, but I am using a compact uv light in the viv, the guard on that got big square holes that she could get in, its a vx vivexotic viv which is quite high so long as I dont put anything for her to climb next to the light she wont be able to reach it.
HEATING
Should I just use the ceramic set at 33 or should I use a heat mat aswell, only asking as I have read different things, I was just going to use the ceramic but thought I would check.
Cheers

a hoggy that size is very likely to get inside a guard if one with the square hole's

Hi it would be a 3ft vx viv, with a 150 watt ceramic (GUARDED). at the moment her faun is inside the viv on a heat mat.stated.

depends what sized viv you mean, could go in a 2ft anytime just have loads of cover, you could also try it in a 3ft again loads of cover but if you are going for a 3ft have a backup ready just incase she doesnt take to it.
