for the grey banded you are looking at a max temp of 33 deg C. The placement should be on the mat not in the hide as the temps will be a lot hotter on the mat to get through the base of the rock hide.

9.6 Corns, 1.0 Bci, 2.1 Royals, 1.1 king snakes, 0.0.1 milksnake, 1.1 black rat snakes, 1.2 Beardies, 1.0 shovelface
