I couldn't decide on wattage to keep that small of an enclosure in the 80's on the warm side the shop owner suggested a day blue 100 watt and even though i questioned this I bought one. Sure enough it put that side up into the high 80's almost 90's. I turned it off and am relying on the UTH at the moment. Does anyone have suggestions on wattage for a 20 gallon for the low 80's? Humidity does not seem to be a problem.

Glad he ate well, always feels good
If it's a 20 gal tall I would suggest to use a 75 watt intense basking spot light by exo terra. should get you around the low 80's if you have the top uncovered.
If its a 20 gal long I would suggest to use a 50 watt intense basking spot light by exo terra. Should get you around the low 80's if you have the top uncovered.
I have learned this through trial and error when I had a 20 gal tall set up for a ball python.
