    Re: Help with raising ambient and cold side temp?

    I would also really consider some sort of insulation for the glass as well, because if you are adding more things that will dry out the air, once you add wintertime heat (if you live in a place that requires this) your humidity may become quite the struggle. When I had a 40B, the first winter I ended up adding the thick white insulation panels to the sides and bottom (not over the heat pad) of the tank and blocking most of the top. It worked well to keep heat in, and it was cheap ($8 for more than enough panels of coverage.) If you do insulate your tank you can add something like an aquarium background or paper first to salvage some of the aesthetic.
