Is the lamp the only source of heat? What are your temps?
Congrats, I can't wait to see it!

UTH, I have the probe of the heater taped to the glass under the carpet, it is currently 90.7 F
the left side of the tank is currently 78.6 F, it will be around 68 at night on the cold side, but the right side of the tank with the UTH will be about 90 F consistently
the light looks better than fluorescent did in this application and managed to raise the ambient air temp in the enclosure from 68 to 78 over the course of the day thus far, it is a 75w soft white bulb used 98% for light and 2% for heat

IMHO I think corns are supposed to be at around 85 hot side and 70-75 cool side. But everyone has their opinons.
