My parents got me a new vivarium as a moving gift, but my mum was persuaded by the shop to get an expensive wooden viv with a heat lamp. Now Im not comfortable using the heat lamp and i have no experience with wooden vivs, and I have no idea how to use a heat mat with this. I've been told never to use heat mats with wooden vivs as a starter as it could catch fire, and I dont think I could put a heat mat under this thing. The wood separating the floor of the viv to the ground is about 1cm, would heat go sufficiently through it without me turning it up so much that it burns the wood? I have no idea how to sort this out, where could I put a heat mat on this or would the wood catch fire or burn? Help much appreciated.
