Ok heres my question....

I have a 75 gallon tank setup.I have a red heat lamp that is on 24hrs its on my basking area(towards the top of the tank,there is a ramp that leads to it) then I have a normal heat lamp that is on during the day.And turned off at night. The basking area stays about 86-90 and the floor temp below has tile and is about 75.The other side of the tank is about 70. Is this about right?Should it be warmer?I was holding one of my geckos earlier and it seemed cold.Just wanna make sure that I have it set up okay.Thanks for the answers in advance.

I'd say you need it a couple degrees warmer in the basking area (92-94). Leos pretty much always feel cool to the touch unless they've just been basking, so don't worry about that.
