Heating 40 gallon breeder

vtec Dec 23, 2006 11:20 AM

My 40gal breeder enclosure is currently heated by 2 UTH's. One I have under the center area of the warm-end of the tank. I also have a mini-UTH (meant for 5.5 gallons) under just the humid hide in the corner on the warm side. The hide I am using for the humid hide is a very thick ceramic material so heat wasn't getting to it from just the main UTH so I put the additional one in to fix that. The air temp in the tank rarely, if ever, reaches 75. Do you guys think that I should buy one of those red light bulb heaters to raise the air temp? Both of my leos are in their warm hides for 75% of the day.
