Im just having a bit of trouble getting all the technicals down pat so he's housed properly.

I've got the uth out and under the actual tub, with the probe on the inside under the substrate.
Do you have a dimmer built into the heating pad? Is there just one?

You could, as a temporary solution, go to the home depot or lowes and pick up a $10 light dimmer. It will help keep the temps a bit lower and give you more control then low medium and high.
