I have mine on 24/7 but I usually turn it down a notch, about 5 degrees c, at night time. Then I turn it back up when I wake up in the morning. Seems to keep him happy.
Of course, ceramic bulbs are wonderful for a 24/7 heat source too. |

Thnx mate i was very worried because she was in a 5gal tank and the light was very very close to her i went out today bought her a 30gal tank with a heat lamp protector at my local pet shop aka elliots pets lol and i am wondering is it cool to have a heat lamp on her 24/7? i have a infrared light the 75 watt just curious? i dont want to disrupt her sleeping patterns |

if you are not using a lamp guard yes your snake could get burned. I would suggest getting a light gaurd and then there is no worries |
