Message: <blockquote data-quote="Captain Firecat" data-source="post: 40593" data-attributes="member: 3530">Thanks, that makes me feel better, I think I can consistently get past 20c even during the night, provided the T pretty much huddles against the mat (or at least stays close to the wall, the corner would be ideal as the 2 mats would overlap), but the room will be much colder in general.I could knit a scarf? <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />I think by the time I actually get a T the ambient temp will be warmer so this will be a next winter issue, then heat mats and perhaps a fan heater set to blow for x minutes every hour to keep the room/tank temperature up.Also new thermometer, I don't trust this one anymore...</blockquote>
