Hi what's the best way to heat a 4ftx2ftx18inch vivarium , for my royal, at the moment he is in a 3ft viv with a 150watt ceramic that works well but I think it will not work in a bigger viv..
Cheers |

Is that the one that has a very large flat bottom? like about 6 inches across? I think thats a tortoise heater |

Hi I use the black magic 150watt now, but the 250watt just don't fit in any of the guards I got. |

it depends what type of ceramic you use to fit in the guards. i use lucky reptile dark spot ceramics and the 250w ones fit inside the guards i have. not sure on guard size as i buy them from cadbury garden centre.they are the biggest of the 2 sizes they sell. could prob get then cheaper on line but i know they are big enough to take the 250w ceramic i use |

Hi what guard do you use, as I can't seem to find one that fits that size.

one of my viv's is the same size as yours, and a 250w ceramic does the job perfectly |
