Help! UTH stopped working!!

[Lacedolphin]

I just got my girl yesterday and sometime during today the UTH stopped working!! It dropped down to 73 on the warm and cool side before I caught it. I grabbed a 50 watt blacklight bulb and stuck it in and got 78 and rising on one side from the clamp lamp. Will she be OK? Will raising the air temp on one side work just for tonight until I can get a new UTH tomorrow morning?
I also have a heat rock I can use if I need to but we all know the dangers of those. Which one would be better to use tonight??:main_huh:

I think the lamp will be fine for tonight, just run out as early as you can tomorrow and grab another UTH.

Also, pick up a red highet wattage bulb and have that as back up, it brings the air temps up to about 85-90.
