Heating/Lighting for 6'x2'x2' viv

[libinoz]

Hi all! Have just received my custom viv (6'x2'x2'). Any ideas for heating/lighting for this monster? There is only one light fitting on the left hand side of the tank. I do have a 48" Arcadia D3 tube and reflector but have not as yet mounted it in the tank. I am concerned that as the tank is so big that I will not be able to provide sufficient heat. Any ideas would be appreciated! PS I live in Australia.

Thanks

Libby

Mines 6' x 24 x 18
Got a utili tech 4' double fixture in the middle (waiting for the bulbs). 7.5" Clamp lamp with a 75 watt GE reveal halogen bulb. At 19 away it's at 90 F problem is you need a 10.5 lamp to go above 75watts that size is just to big unless you sit the lamp ontop and not in. The probe in the pic is close to 2' foot away i moved it to the small limb that is right next to puff's back foot. I haven't found the spot I want to put the lamp yet so I will move it closer to get some more heat.
Hope that helps I had the same questions
