    Thumbs down

    Pay no attention to the thumbs down. I must have fat fingered something.

    It would be much easier if you kept your issues in one thread instead of spreading the information among a few. It makes for a lot of wasted time and questions on both ends.

    You would have a very hard time trying to get a rhp to work in that tank.

    You could save a lot of heat by covering the two open sides and much of the screen top.

    I used foil covered cardboard to make a cover for my screen and used thick art paper to cover the sides. These two things gave me a good boost in my temps.

    If your using just uth for both sides the fix could be as easy as adding a heat bulb or a che. I wouldn't worry about it killing the humidity and would just add some moss to the hides. My 40gal tank needed a 100w che and a 60w bulb to keep the temps right but I still had perfect sheds by doing nothing else than adding damp moss to the hides.
