Problem with cold side of tank

[shadowdragon619]

So i finally have a thermostat, and i can keep the warm side at 88-90 degrees, but my cold side stays at 70. is there any way i can raise this temp? i'm sure its too cold for a leopard gecko

What about putting a red heat lamp in the middle of the tank to raise your warm temps up a little and also your cool side...

I think 70 is fine. My cold side gets a lot colder in winter and everyone is healthy. If they don't like 70, they can stay on the warm side which is the point of having the thermal gradient.
