Middle of summer in California. It is a ways away from worrying about winter temperatures. And mild winters to add. But I’m already starting to think of some sort of heating cabinet. I have 9 tarantulas. All sling size now. I’d rather avoid heating my entire, although small, home office with them in it. So cabinet I’m thinking. I’m wondering how such a thing contradicts if at all the whole.. ventilation.. ventilation..ventilation mantra with species like the Carbena Versicolor. I also want to invest in something much more reliable that an undertank heater and crappy pet thermostat. After 2 years of semi trusting a, it never gets past 85 degrees under tank heater for my corn snake, I felt the bottom of the tank, and it was burning hot. That is .. with a thermostat which is supposed to throttle the heat on the stupid thing. Fortunately the snake is o.k., but the bottom line is, I’m not going to trust anything out of the pet trade when it comes to reliable and stable temperature. Any thoughts or suggestions?
