So I have the what I feel is a good setup for my three and will be purchasing the final.things I need this Thursday. Here is how its going to work.
I am building a three tier metal shelf from Lowes I will wrap one of the tiers with aluminum tape enough to allow 4" flexwatt to lay on top. I will then run a 36" strip of flexwatt to heat my three tubs. The flexwatt will be run to a hydrofarm thermostat for now with intentions of getting either a helix or herpstat with time. My tubs will have a humid hide on the hot end and a cool dry hide at the other. The will have a small calcium/food dish and a small water dish. I will have 2 thermometers running to each tub one for the hot and one for the cold side. Unless I can find a cheap two probe unit for under $10 a piece. The hot side will be kept between 92-95° and the "cold" side in the mid 80s.
How does this rack setup sound....any flaws before I finish getting my goods?
