G'day.


I've got a 2.5 year old BHP just over 2 m long. I also moved him from a 120cm tank to a 2.2 m that I custom made about 6 months ago. Glass base and front with wood sides, back and top. I use desert red sand for substrate and course bedding down the cool end. I run an echo tech thermostat/timer for 2 X 20 watt under tank heating mats set to 34° during the day and 26° overnight. The probe sits under the sand beneath his hide. The heating and UV lamps in the centre are set for daytime and turn off at night. He spends a lot of time in his hide but is still active during winter. (I live in Melbourne) I just open 1 of the 4 lids when I get home from work and he'll climb out and wonder around the house for a while, then climb back in when he gets too cold.
