I am setting up a 10 gallon tank for a baby blood that I am getting. (don't know when yet). I have heat tape on the bottom 1/4 of the tank and 1/4 on the side of the tank. I have newspaper substrate and the humidity is 70%........so far it sounds good,( I think)???

My concerns are.......The Ambient Air Temp???? What does it need to be? and how can I achieve that? On the opposite side of the tank, the Air temp is 77.2 degrees......shouldn't that be a little higher???

I have my Thermostat that is connected to the heat tape set and 88 degrees, but it remained on all night last night and I am afraid of the baby getting burned because of constant heat from underneath.

What should I do? Please help me........ :(

Thanks,

Lu :confused:
