I beg to differ. If you've got a 10 gallon aquarium and it's got a 15 degree temperature difference in it's 20 inches of length then I think that's a problem. Your cool side should not be 75...ever...

To me it says you have a lot of heat escaping from the enclosure and that you need to put extra heat into it just to maintain the right temps. Personally, I'd switch enclosures to something along the lines of what others have mentioned (tubs, acrylic, PVC like boaphiles) but since you believe in your fish cage I would change the top.
