Today I moved my rhino to his new enslosure (48x48x24). My question is, in the old cage the hot spot on top of his retes stack was about 110-115 and cage temp of about 85 . This new cage is about 5x the size and its hard to keep the hotspot on retes stack over 100 and the ambient cage temp dropped to about 78. Is this ok, or do you think I should bump it up with a heat emitter added. Right now I am using 160w MVB and a 10.0 repti strip light. He seems to try to climb closer to the MVB, but he feels warm to the touch, my temp gun said his body warmth was about 101 when he was basking. I might just be over-reacting.

Thanks in advance
