I originally had an UTH mat, but it wasn’t coming close to warming up inside the tank because it wasnt’ getting enough heat through the glass and substrate. As to someone else’s question, the tank is 18” tall. I have the CHE on a thermostat and i have two thermometers inside and a temperature gun that I use often to get temps, so I know what temps it was creating before with the lamp stand and it was getting to low 80s max on the hot side.
I have attached another photo for reference from POV from the inside of the tank to see - maybe this pic will help.
Thanks again every one - appreciate all the tips and insight since I am a new BP owner just trying to sort out the setup.
I’d love to keep it now how it is as long as it’s safe, since I already spent a lot of time and trial and error with different setups.

Thanks!
