    For ambient temp you could use either a ceramic heat emitter or a radiant heat panel. Either still needs to be controlled by another thermostat, or at least a dimmer with regular temperature checks as temps fluctuate in the room.

    The other options are insulating the tank with foam board or heating that one room.
