The average temperature in my box without any lamps on is around 20 °C/68 °F
My Pancake totoise probably needs an average of 35 °C/95° F and the way I've solved that is by using 2 Solar Glo 75W Basking lamps to raise the temperature to that, but it only covers a third of my enclosure.
What should I use so I can set the entire enclsure to around +35 °C?
I tried porsline lamps but they only cover a small area equal to that of the Solar Glo lamps and they are quite expensive as well for such a little effect.
Should I get more Solar Glo lamps and put them in different spots to completely cover the enclosure?
His cave however is always at a pleasant +22 °C for napping and sleeping.
EDIT: I noticed that Exo-Terras Heat Glo lamps are quite hot (and cheap!) and work rather well for raising air temperature. Problem is that they emit a red light rather than normal light which I don't know is good for a tortoise :/
