I just moved my baby leo to a 10 gallon tank, I got a UTH for the tank, my question is: I'm using paper towel for the floor, should I put two layers on the heated side or one, I have one now i can put my hand on the floor comfortably, but i don't want it too hot for the little one.

thanks for the help

Well, you need to measure the surface temp with a digital thermometer. The number of layers of papertowels you'll need depends on the temperature. The temp needs to be between 88-93 degrees, on the top of the papertowels.
