HELP with pacman setup!

You never want to put them on the bottom you need to put it on the side of one end. I had problems with mine heating the tank also so i purchased another to put on the other side of a corner.

Any indepth questions feel free to ask.

Look up the Zoo Med Hygrotherm and Zoo Med Reptifogger. These assist in maintaining the climate for you. Look on Amazon.com

I keep them 80° to 83° during the day and 75° to 79° at night. I do use infrared bulbs at night. You can use a space heater to help raise the ambient room temp. This will help keep the enclosure warmer. The UTH should go on the side opposite the side where the water dish is. Use a Fluker's 5.5" or 8.5" clamp lamp with dimmer switch. This will allow you to adjust the amount of light and heat more accurately.

The Hygrotherm will control the fogger and heat for you. It will turn the fogger on when the humidity drops below your set level and turn it back off once it returns to that level.

You can use either, but don't go higher than 50 watts.
