Not sure if you missed this, but I gave you a easy and cheap alternative that will not effect your bills one bit.
"Op, there is a cheaper alternative to a space heater, and considering you are only going to have one, a heat bath is another option. Fill a tub with water, place a stable platform in it, add an inexpensive aquarium heater and you're god to go. These heaters are both economical as well as great at holding temps, and because its water being heated, you don't have to worry about hot spots, dehydration or fluctuating temps...easy and cheap...I used this method for a few years when I had a small enough collection. Its as simple as adding water as it evaporated as the heater needs to remain submerged."
That looks awesome! I think I'll go with a space heater, but I won't run it 24/7.Not sure if you missed this, but I gave you a easy and cheap alternative that will not effect your bills one bit.
