That is indeed a huge viv for Royals.

I have a 500 watt AHS in a home made 4x3x2 viv and it has been fab so far. Easy to install and my big boa girl seems to like it

I live a few hours north of you in a typical granite house with no central heating so I know what you mean. AHS is def the way to go

We have the 250 in our small BRBs, amazing at holding temps. Love it and when we can afford it, we will have some more for our other beasties.
