Ok I’ll tell my side! As I keep my house at 68* all the time. Texas heat makes me love a cold house. Anyways, I use a heat pad controlled by a thermostat which is a must. Not opinion. Then I use a small heat lamp, the 25 watt ones, for the ambient temp controlled by a thermostat as well. I keep a towel that I cut over 3/4 of the tank, is a ecoterra so it has like 4 corners. And the humidity is way easier to control. Hope this helps
