Sometimes I think reading too much information can be as troublesome as not enough! I have Mr. Mittens in a ten gallon tank with a 50 watt bulb. I purchased a small heat mat today, but I am unsure whether a heat mat and the light will be too much. Any feedback? I currently have a zoo med gauge (dial) which I know am thinking is worthless (based on what I've read). I tried a digital one today but I hated it and need to return it. The dial thermometer says it is 78 degrees and 85% humidity. I did recently move the lamp though from one side to the middle which might be why the temp is lower. I have a thermostat in my Amazon shopping cart should you say that I should add the heating pad.

Oddly enough, Mr. Mittens is super active around his cage. My corn snake hides all day and night and my bp is a mad man.


Any suggestions or feedback is much appreciated!
