right guys, my little spider royals currently in a faunarium with a heat mat underneath, the problem i have is ive put a mat-stat on the mat as i didnt want him to get burnt, but now the temps aren't hot enough in the warm end, it was only getting to 77 at the hottest point!

i need some advice on getting the temps up without burning the poor little mite!

Where is the probe? How much substrate have you got covering the mat?

ive now sorted it, was my own fault i had way too much substrate in there and the probe was in the wrong place!
