MD temperature regime

Hey,

I'm having a little trouble with my temperature regime... during the day the temperature (on the heated en) crawls up to about 28 or 29 and drops to around 20 (maybe lower..) at night time... first off is this not good?? the temps take a while to reach 28 in the morning (peaks from about 11-4)...
second how rapidly should they drop.... should it be more gradual? and lastly... any ways I can improve? (a few examples of regimes would be much appreciated) my cage is 120cmX60X70 and i have a 100w ceramic heater hooked up to a thermostat set at 30 on the heated end... also i have tried putting another 60w ceramic heater as well as the 100w....but the whole cage heats up to 29-32....

thanks in advance
