housing multiple ts

[spidey noob]

hi all
I would like to start getting a few more Ts, (11 to be exact)
but i live in the NE of england & its cold so heating is a must for any i get, Ts will be in my bed room so heating whole rooms out.
now i first looked at getting rack/shelvs but may work out to expensive for thermostats & heat mats for each one, so i started to wonder abought getting a cuboard with acrilic doors & 6 x shelvs so i could just heat the whole thing in one go, would save me loads of £££, but im unshure if the one cubord for all Ts ok or not ? all imput is more than welcome (all Ts will be desert spices with similar requirments to b,smithi)

That's probably the best way to go.

Agreed I've heard a few people using heated cabinets. I would make sure to add some ventilation to it so its not just stagnant warm air trapped inside

hi all,
this is what im thinking, basicaly a wardrobe with acrilic back & doors with plenty of ventatation, but now im no shure on the best way to heat it
so im wondering with one of the list below u would personaly go four ;
1. ceramic bulb (in the bottom)
2. heat mats (eatch tank or 1 big one )
3. space heater ( in the bottom)
4. another way ?

im going to draw up some plans will post the pics once done

I'd probably go for either a space heater or you could run heat tape attached to a thermostat along the back. Flexawatt is a popular brand over here not sure what's available in england

i will have a look into heat tape, thanks

 

[MatthewM1]

Np, its the number one way people heat snake racks over here

i had a look in to the heat tape seems like its more of a us product & not avalible in the uk, so i would have to order from us to get it.
did find something similar in the uk, heat mat but it meshures 48" by 6" so i will go with that.
