Triple layer aluminum foil wrapped around 3 sides of the tank, and over the screen lid. This should increase the heat somewhat.

Rigid foam board insulation surrounding 3 sides of the tank, with aluminum foil on the screen lid.

Either option will increase the internal temperature by helping to maintain the heat in the tank.
I do remember foil being nice when she was in the smaller tank. I had stopped using it because once we moved, this house was keeping her first tank pretty warm. That could work.
