Thanks, and he has 2 identical clay hides he seems to fit perfectly, he has one above the UTH and the temp. under that one is 94F I moved the lamp almost directly above the cool hide and its temp is 77.5F now but still climbing however the air around it shot up to 86 and the humidity dropped down to 58% so I figure I'll move it back a small bit. I think(/hope) the elec. tape should deal for another day or two until I pick up some blue painters tape however I will be monitoring it frequently. I have to head out again until 9 so hopefully everything stays good, I'll post again with any new concerns/update when I get home. Thanks.

Perry.
