Default UTH or heat lamp?

Do Paroedura Pictus need belly heat like leos do? We've only had our leo for a couple months, but I would like to get a Pictus, too. I keep reading conflicting info about whether they need a UTH or a heat lamp. Which is better for this species? Thanks!

I have never fed roaches so i'm not really sure. do they eat the roaches without the vitamins? maybe the roaches dont move enough? I use crix and sometimes meal worms.
