Thanxx, but I have one small problem...

In daytime the tempertaure is around 23-24, wich is good, but at night the temperature easily drops till 15 or 16...

I have a 13Watt special UV lamp...

So my question is: because it's a rather cold room in the winter and rather hot room in the summer, how can I keep my temperature at night a bit higher??

Would it be better to put the UV lamp of 13Watt away and put in a 25Watt heating lamp? Do they still get enough UV from that 25watt lamp then??

Thanxx...

Such temperatures are still ok. Do not let the babies grow up to fast, therefore rather somewhat cooler. I always orient myself at climatic data and pictures from their terra typica. There you cant made much wrong
Give them a light uv lamp and use d3+calcium.

Thats a very nice tool, that i often use

Nice animals! The 13w UV should be ok I think. Just make sure that they get enough calcium (on the food and sepia on a dish as an extra) because they grow pretty fast.

Wow, ok, the temperature schedule gives 16 degrees at night, then it's ok for me!

I've putted a warming carpet under the terra, so it's best to remove that then??

A durable polystyrene plate is better suitable. Or foam material.
