I'll update you on his cage, but really the only difference is I use newspaper as bedding as he likes to mess about with it to hide sometimes. Like I said I put 3 rather large fake plants in his cage, so it's not nearly as empty as before. Then again I can see them now being a issue with feeding as he climbs the leafs. And on average it's 85-90 only on rare occasions does it go over 90(when I turn off my fan in my room) 90% of the time it's easily 85-90. Keep in mind that's his warm side, he does have a cooler side with his water dish and now the plants. If I notice him bathing to cool down I'll generally lower his temps for him.
