Not thrilled with the extreme temp range in the BP cage up top. If I set the bottom panel any lower the retic will be a bit cooler than is ideal but I worry I'm getting the BP too warm on the warm side. I have a 1/2"-3/4" gap between the two cages that takes care of some of the heat transference.

    I am still working on insulating my top cage from the lower one. I get a similar problem from the RHP on the lower cage heating the floor of the top cage. I put a piece of foam between them recently - I'll let you mow how that works.
