Nope...this section is just fine
 Do you have a picture of the full setup? You may want to change it. Glass tanks aren't great for maintaining or reaching the required temperatures...and that heat mat won't do a great deal outside the tank on the wall. Heat mats on heat what comes into contact with them so they don't boost the ambient air temps. What temps are you getting in there at the moment? Is that a heat lamp providing the light, or just a UV or energy saving etc? Where is the probe for the thermostat with the heat mat, as ideally you want in against the wall up against the mat...but this could prove very difficult, hense being best on the floor. Nice snake

Is the heat lamp guarded?
You shouldn't really need a heat lamp AND heat mat at one end AND a heat mat at the other too... Ideally a heat lamp will suffice. PLUS...it must have cost a small fortune in thermostats for those three heat sources!
