    Re: Aquarium enclosure getting too hot

    I don't use a UTH on my little 10 gallon. To reduce your temps a little I recommend using an Exo-Terra lamp stand. I've been using one for a long time.(link included) This product is also available at PetSmart for a couple dollars more. I have a single 75 watt red bulb on one side and it's raised up about 7 inches over the cage. I like being able to adjust the temps on warmer or cooler days. I might even have to go down to a 60 watt bulb for the summer. I can't raise the lamp much more and today's temps were 90hot/80cool and 60%RH. Perfect.
