problem with basking light

I'm having trouble with that though. If I raise it higher it won't be as hot anymore.. so I think I'll have to make them closer to each other.

did you see my list of temperatures and wood types on the previous page? I use Cork for exactly this reason, it allows for a good basking temp without having to use lots of power - I am using only 35W floods

experiment with diffrent woods, or perhaps even stone, which will hold even more heat
