    Unhappy Problems with temp or set up or hum% or all of it

    Can't get the photo to go in here :-(

    If I did this correct you should see my set up above.

    I have 40G tank for my BP.

    These set ups I have tried so far.
    right side under tank pad for 40 G from zoo med 120VAc 60Hz 8W hooked to repti heat control from zoo med. above 30W lamp water on top huge water bowl in between lamp and pad.

    left side hide and and 60W lamp on to temp where great but hum% was only about 30 after I sprayed it i got it to 60-70 for a very short time.

    So I changed the tank to

    glass on screen top which took care of the hum%. right side only under pad 70F with control set to high.
    Water bowl in the middle (bowl is pretty big.

    left site hide and lamp with 30W which didn't work at all changed it top 60 got it to about 70F now (30min.ago) 75 W lamp. Still not right only 70F. Gauge is on the ground now which I usually have both at about 4 1/2" off the ground.

    I still have a under tank pad left from my 20G. Should I use it if where?

    I use Aspen now but will switch to coco husk as soon as my order arrives.

    I also have no foam can't find any for my 40G tank. Could I just use normal foam and add Background in front of foam and stick it to the outside of the tank?

    Please help my BP is freezing.

    Oh I can't change the room temperature. My BP is 1 1/2 will she already stop eating when it get's cold? and How long will they stop eating?

    I am thankful for any advise which help her.
