    setup need help

    i am new to pythons and am tring to get my setup operating properly before getting my snake. i have a 20l tank i have an exo-terra heat pad on the cool side a large water dish in the middle and a hide on either side. not i have read that you have to have a rehostat on the heat pad and after some testing im getting 94* between the glass and the cage carpet and un top of the carpet its 82* is this ok what should i do there. second im having trouble picking the right bulb size for the night and day lights. there are not normaly lights on in that room so im sure i will need one, i started with a 75w day spot for the warm side and it got up to 96* im not sure if this is to warm should i try and raise the light, get a dimmer or go to the next size down, also for the cold side i have herd not to have a difrent temp at night and also to so with the 60w night bulb it gets to 76* on the floor is this to low. is it right to have the uth on the cold side. i apreciate the help
