save up and buy a new tank...you will need a UTH (under tank heater) with a THERMOSTAT to correctly regulate the UTH...BPs do better with belly heat...also make sure you get a new thermometer soon...those red bulbs can get a lot hotter than people realize...your hotter side for the bp should be 88-90...and remember it helps with humidity if you tin foil the mesh outside top of the tank...
