another noob, is my setup correct?

[tttaylorrr]

i have a t-stat on order, will be here wednesday, and i will be picking up a dimmer tomorrow after i see what a straight light does now that i changed bulb (went from blue 50 to red 75) as it stands now the ambient temps i think are looking good, still need another thermo for inside under substrate i think though, or move one of the ones i have reading ambient to hot side under substrate and centralize the other? based on the how to set up a glass tank sticky he only used one or two thermo's and one was buried under the substrate over the UTH.

yes, an additional thermometer + probe under the hot side substrate is ideal. your UTH is unplugged, right (sorry, on mobile so can't look back as easily)?
you're doing just fine, just keep monitoring and find out what you need to adjust. ask away if you need help.
