2 quick fixes:

1. You need a hot spot - several ways to do this (undertank heater and put his hide on top of it or lower the ceramic heater so it hot spots an area better...trying to get it around 90.

2. cover the tank with plexy (or something to hold the heat...it sounds like you have a screen top and are venting all the heat out?

Also, shut off any room vents, room AC units, fans, etc...anything that would pull heat from the cage.

Hope this helps some.
