what UTH are you using? is it controlled by a thermostat at all? personally in aquariums I prefer heating with light bulbs, and depending on night time temperatures if you need to warm the tank at night use a red zoomed bulb, or a ceramic bulb.

IMO its easier to monitor temperatures this way in aquariums, and safer imo as well.

I disagree. Heat lamps suck out humidity which causes just as much of a problem as low temps. Not to mention they burn out quite often and that can get costly.


OP: You need a thermostat to control the UTH. The cheapest model is the reptitemp 500r. If you have a probe thermometer, place it on the glass above the UTH, under the substrate. If the temperature gets above 95* then unplug the UTH.
