Hard to tell, with these photos, but it is an Albino of some sort.
Yes, I would recommend heat tape or UTH.
They do drink more often than you'd think. Providing clean water, 24/7, is necessary for whenever they do choose to drink.
Hides, on hot & cold side, is good. As is your providing a calcium dish.
If I were you, I'd get rid of the sand and just use paper towels (or the like). Also, you need to provide a "wet hide".

I had a wet hide but it just shed so I took it out, and I will be buying some heat tape tomorrow do I just put it on half the tank? And I usually tong feed it so I didn't think sand would be harmful ? And are they good at detecting water by there own?

I would leave a wet hide in 24/7.
The heat tape only needs to be no more than a quarter of the tank. A wee less would be fine too.
Whether feeding, or not, Leos like to lick a lot. So, I still wouldn't have sand as the substrate.
Yes, they are good at finding/detecting water on their own.

Am sure you are likely to know this but it bothered me, later, that I did not mention it.
With the heat tape/UTH, make sure you use a thermostat or rheostat.
