In the mean time, you will need to find a way to raise temps in the enclosure in general. You can use those heat bulbs to do that - just make sure you're still using your temp gun to check all over the tank several times a day and raise or lower the bulbs as appropriate.

When you get your thermostat (which is actually a rheostat), you may plug your heat mat into it, and the it into the wall and adjust it until you get the glass temperature back to safe - 90 degrees or so. Since it is a rheostat, you will need to keep checking temps daily and make adjustments as necessary.
I see. Thank you very much

Do you have any good thermostat you can recommend? I can just cancel the rheostat order.
