Hey all!

First post here and first time BP owner. I've had my spider about two months now and had a bit of trouble with heating to begin with (as is the age old tale we all know). I decided to stick with a 65W heat lamp as it kept temps beautifully in late spring-early summer (86F hot, 91F basking, 80F~ cool). Humidity is of course a bummer (35-50% between mists, naturally rises a bit toward night) in a 20g glass Viv but manageable with a simple towel over half the tank.

So summer hit like a brick here in New England and temps are getting to 90F regularly. So my question is, how do you keep temps DOWN in the summer while still providing a proper heat gradient?? I've searched for a while but it seems the only threads I can find are how to lessen the chance of a temp spike, not how to lower a constant high temp would switching to a UTH work? I have one, but have not wanted to risk it without setting up his thermostat first and elevating his tank to allow air passage underneath. Would this be better to keep temps lower than a heat lamp? My BP is eating every 5 days like a champ, even with this past week having wonky high temps. I'd just really like to nail down a very consistent environment for him.

Thank you!!
