Ok, I did a little shopping earlier on and picked up a new white basking light and a ceramic heater. I have a few questions if anyone doesn't mind answering:

- Is it ok to put the ceramic heater in a dome clamp lamp as long as it can withstand the wattage?

- I tried putting the heater at a safe distance away from the top of the tank and the fluorescent bulb, but it doesn't seem to be heating the tank barely at all. The package said it was meant for 30-40 gallon tanks and Kota's is a 30. How close can I move it without worrying about fire?

-One more...Where should I put it in comparison with everything else? I have the fluor. bulb along the back and the basking on one side with a little hammock so she can bask. Shouldn't the basking and hotter side be essentially on the same side? Because I can't fit the basking light and the ceramic next to each other. Is it okay to put the bask on one side and the ceramic on the other?

Thanks for any and all help!
