Heating question

[rasslinrinyu]

Thats a great idea! My humidity is pretty good overall but does drop a little low so that could solve two problems. Ill look into it. Thanks a million

Under tank heaters do not change the temperature of the air in the tank so they are useless for heating the cool side.

You have a few options:

Low wattage infrared heat bulb on a lamp dimmer

Increase the temperature of the room

My air temps arent really the problem its when I check the bedding on the cool side. I may increase the room temp just a tad though to help out. Thanks very much.

btw. I live in Orlando too. You going to the FIRE show this weekend?

your temps are fine, just don't let them go any lower.
Covering a portion of the top will help.
UTH's do add ambient temperature to a tank, just not usually enough to keep the cool end warm enough, which is why many tanks also need an over-head heat source.

Ill try the cover and see if that holds in a few extra degrees and if it becomes an issue I have a light already. Thanks for the input. I really appreciate it.
