Hey, if you go and start putting heat lamps and ceramic heaters on, your humidity problem will get worse. The lamp or heater will dry out the air even more.

There is some confusion here that I want to get straightened out so kimusubi is not further confused because of his or her situation. kimusubi said Zoo-Med heat pad and shhawke said that heat pads were bad. Yes heat pads are bad for the fact they are not designed for heating reptile cages. BUT.. the Zoo-Med product kimusubi is referring to is an Under Tank Heater. Under Tank Heaters are good. Most people use Under Tank Heaters or heat strips called felxi-watt. To control the temp of your Under Tank Heater you must get a good thermometer and a rheostat or similar dimmer from a hardware store or even better invest some money and buy a good thermostat. Also non-contact thermometers are worth their weight in gold. It will be worth it and you don’t have to worry about anything.
