    At least you got temps up into acceptable ranges- below 70F you risk RI. I personally don't like to see less than 72-74 if that. You can do things to bring the humidity up- misting or better yet adding a moist hide filled with organic Sphagnum moss that is kept moist.

    You can add the styro-board insulation around your set-up to help insulate it, but with room temps that cool, I doubt you'll be losing the heat lamp.
