    Question Heating Issues

    Hello,

    I having some heating issues in my BP terrarium. I'm using a front opening 25 gallon Zoomed glass tank. I have a heat mat under one side with a thermostat connected, but i can't get temps above 82 on the warm side. My substrate is coco fibers mixed with forrest floor at 3" deep.

    My humidity levels are awesome (Thank you Florida).

    I did buy a heat lamp, but it was making my warm side 112 degrees Fahrenheit (which i know is too hot). The bulb was a 75 watt basking spot lamp bulb by zoomed.

    Should i just get a lower watt bulb and stick it up top? I just know i need to get those temps right for my little dude.

    Thanks in advance!
