    Personally, I'd suggest moving him out of that large enclosure into a 20 gallon but don't know if that's available to you. A smaller enclosure should make him feel more secure and will also help you with heating issues.

    Considering that the terrarium is on the floor, you have to really monitor the temps to make sure that they're not falling down even more during the night. You may want to cover the top of the enclosure that doesnt have the CHEs on the with an acrylic plexi glass this should help with heat and humidity loss.

    I'd also cover the back and sides with black or dark construction paper or something along that line to provide him additional security.

    He is no longer on the floor. He’s on a desk now. The floor was a temporary situation. The two quadrants without heaters has tinfoil covering it shiny side down atm. Also I would like to avoid changing his tank because he’s gone thru a few tank swaps already. I think consistency is key at this point. The tank is full of greenery and hides and i would rather add more decor to improve security than put him back in a smaller tank. also, the paper is translucent (light passes thru but not image) not transparent.
