I'm reading that during the day ambient temp for Rosy's needs to be 75ish and substrate temp needs to be around 88. I have a thermometer with a probe and buried an inch into the substrate over the UTH it reads 88 but if I bury it just below the surface of the substrate it's only about 77. I turned up the UTH with my dimmer because I am worried that this isn't warm enough to provide the right belly heat. As of now it reads about 82.

My question is, how far down into the substrate should the temp be 88? He doesn't burrow much on the warm side. If I need to get the temp higher than the current 82, should I take out some of the substrate to do this?

Any advice, experiences, or suggestions would be very helpful.
Thanks,
Meg
