I have a similar size tank as you and have one PYGMY bulb set up in the "hot end". They are 240 V, 15 W. Only small but do heat up nicely without being too bright. I have a clear bulb in just now but you can get coloured bulbs too. I used to have a red one which you can leave on over night and doesnt disturb the snakes nocturnal patterns. At the end of the day its up to you on what colour to use depending on whether you want the bulb on at night or day! Hope that helps!
PS. Have never used infra red, just normal pygmy bulbs!
