[QUOTE="PseudoDave, post: 10205, member: 123"] Scarlet kings, along with many other kings/milks don't 'need' uv lights in their enclosure due to their predominently nocturnal nature. Sure they still bask now and then, which is why many people still argue to install a uv. Basically, there are people that breed successfully with and without the uv's. For peace of mind, you can kill two birds with one stone and use a UV basking lamp. This will be the heat source, and also pumps out enough uv to satisfy any that the snake may need. It also eliminates needing two light fittings for a basking/heat source and a uv tube. I personally stay clear of heat mats totally, this is just a personal preference to lamps. Dave [/QUOTE]
