nothing wrong with ceramics and the dimmer will be fine with that. no idea what make of ceramic though.

also infra red bulbs, not coloured red bulb, are not a bad option either.

as g said ceramics are fine, theres loads of makes out there. but remember depending on what wattage u go for u may need a ceramic holder. i use a infra red bulb for my python. dimming can be used on either of them without any issue
