connect either device(s) to a thermostat set at 75ºF. The probe should be sited 6" off the floor at the opposite end of the vivarium to the heater [the cool end].
It is ESSENTIAL that the heater is protected by a mesh guard to prevent your lizard burning itself:
Day-time Ultra-Violet light, "normal" white light and basking spot heat should be provided by a 160 watt mercury vapour UV & Heat Lamp such as the Zoo Med PowerSun lamp. This should also have a guard over it and switched on from 12 to 14 hours a day.
