As long as there is somewhere very cool for them to get away from the heat (though not sure how well this will work in 3 foot viv) then you can reach whatever temp you want at hot end (within reason!!)
Hope this helps,
Ben

Should be fine as long as you have a nice cool place for them to go!

there should be a warm spot of about 95 upwards.
cool end down to 80 if possible but 85 is ok.

what are you using for heating? mat or bulb?
