    Go with a under tank heat (UTH) mounted on the side, remember pacs love to burrow so if it's under the tank they can get burned.

    Yeah, I have a very thin heater that I am going to mount on the side. Eventually I will graduate to the standard sticky one thats on the bottom of all my snake tanks. Right now his red light (50w) is keeping his tank at 77.9 w/ HM at 60% .. not sure how to get it higher other than completely soaking his substrate.

    The problem with the lights is they tend to dry out the substrate keeping humidity down, that should clear up with the UTH
