on 8/25/2008 You should have 2 temperature sensors in your terrarium - and you should also consider a IR temperature gun - it will read a more excact spot-temperature.
I would also used a terrarium with opening in front. Aquariums like this will heat up quickly, and the ventilation isn`t very good. At least you should consider to install a couple of computer fans on the top to suck out (not blow in) heated air. With a decent adapter you can choose how many rpm`s the fans shall spin.
I would also recommend you saying something about timers (if you use those) - to make a routine-day for the BD. All lights and heating devices should have a timer - this way the "sun comes up" 8 AM each day, and sets 10 PM.
