To all you experts out there! I'm sure many of you have run into this, or have at least heard of it, and have a solution.



I picked up a complete Leo setup from a guy that consists of a 40 gallon breeder tank, sand substrate, quite a few hides, a black light heating bulb, and two under tank heaters (one still in the package). The larger UTH is the one attached to the tank and is on one end as it should be, but the problem is that the heated end directly over the UTH is getting to 100 degrees all the time. With the lamp on, it'll hit 110. It's crazy. The leos avoid that whole area of the cage thank God with the lamp on. They have begun handing out in the heated sand under the hides in that area with the light off, but I still feel it's too hot for them. I need to be able to cool that thing down. Somewhere I remember reading of a device that I could control how much electricity was going to the UTH.



Any one have more info?



Thanks,



-Patrick
