Thanks Voodoodoc I did pick up a hydrofarm Tstat seems to be keeping the mat nice and warm. I had the prob on the inside of the cage but ended up putting on the outside right on the heat source. going to get another today along with a UTH just to be safe. My house gets very cold old windows old heaters so I have been reading care sheets and a lot of them seem to shy away from the use of 2 CHEs. My 100 watt can't keep the air temp up Ill get the other UTH see what happens there, but if need be would it be ok to have 2? would it be too hard to keep the humidity up, does anyone use two CHE? air temp seems to be 75 bit cold

CHE or any other "bulb" heat source will unfortunately affect the humidity. I find it helpful to get a $10 plug in lamp dimmer from Home Depot or the sorts, and use that so the bulb isn't as intense. My house gets drafty in the winter as well and I end up using a black light on a dimmer for my one tank
