This is why I suggest that some keepers in the UK use a viv instead of a table... It is easier to maintain a proper temperature.

How high are the walls of the table?

I've seen some keepers(in the UK) place a board across the top to keep in the heat during the fall and winter.

60 watts is really low.

Thanks
