We have a new adult box turtle and I'm having trouble getting the right temp for him. He is indoors, in a 50 g tank with no cover - I have a 125w MVB which I anticipated using for basking/UVB and a 100W CHE, both in clamp lamps on the same end of the tank. I'm only getting to about 81-82 directly under the MVB, with high 70s ambient heat on the warm end of the tank, low 70s on the cool end. He is NOT happy about this, but I can't figure out how to get it to warm up! Any suggestions for different lights/wattage I should be using?
