At those temps you do NOT need extra heating at all, they do burrow so you need more substrate in there, since you may be keeping it in that tank I would suggest taking most of the clutter out, makes it easier for you to track feedings and such. Provide it with a piece of cork bark or whatever you have for a burrow/hide and provide a starter burrow (poke a finger in the dirt) by the looks of it (just taking a guess here by the looks of it as I have seen similar) it's 12x6x12 inches. So I would have at least 7 to 8 inches of substrate in there with some sort of hide and some fake plants if you must but they don't care either way. If you need any other help just ask. Posting pics and videos always help as there are things experienced keepers will notice that some others will not.

Keep in touch bud were always here to help out, anything you need just start a thread and you will get the answers you have been looking for.
