Where is your basking spot? You can either elevate the basking spot so it's closer to the heat source or get a 40 watt heat lamp.

Have you gotten a thermostat yet?

You've asked for suggestions. I recommend a herpstat, vivarium electronics, helix, ranco, hygrofarm.

The last two are cheaper than the others but they are on/off. They work well but I prefer proportional thermostats(the first three) because they keep steadier temperatures.
I have a dual probe digital thermometer. And the basking spot I set up was on a branch 8 inches off of the cage floor and 4 inches from the light, this was where the basking probe is. Also, I have it in an 8" dome, do you think if I put it in a 5" dome, might raise the temp in that spot a bit?
