    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Is a UTH Necessary?

My temps on the warm side with a 150 watt ceramic zilla heat emitter is 85-90 and cool side is at 75... is that good or do I need a UTH also?
 
that sounds fine the way it is, almost too warm in fact on the hot side at 90, tops at 85 is usually fine.
 
I agree, the temp is a little too high for a corn. Though i do have to question, from where you are getting your readings at? Is it on the bottom of the tank or higher up? Corn snakes need belly heat to digest their food so as long as the bottom of the tank is reading 85(ish) on the warm side then you should be okay.
