There is no specific time that it needs to come on and go off. You need to make his schedule so it fits in with your lifestyle, that will ensure that you spend maximum time together. It is not necessary for any heat at night unless if the cage drops below 65F / 18C. Make sure that there is no lights that shine at night because that disturbs their sleep. If it is really cold at night then you can use a ceramic heater. Here is a care sheet that shows you exactly how everything needs to be setup: http://reptile-parrots.com/forums/showthread.php?1...

Good luck. ;)
I would use a heat lamp that does not have light, you can control the amount of UV (Day light) he has
Have a hide rock or holowed branch, he will sleep when he needs :)
