Im out of ideas/things I can do.

I was running 1, 50 or 100 watt heater, and found my tank temp at about 16 when I got home. I slowly brought the heater higher, and added another 50 or 100 watt. My apartment is very cold, and the land lord doesn't heat it during the summer, so it gets down to about 5 or 6 at night, and sometimes not much more during the day (recently). I got the temp. up to 22 or 23, and the heaters are almost at the max dial, I don't want to push them too hard. Anything else I can do? I had the oven on, and the door open, but thats about all I can do for the apartments temp. The inhabitants is one figure 8 puffer. I understand that 23 is okay for puffers, but I would like to know what I can do just incase it gets down lower, and heaters are at the max.
 
umm only thing i could suggest is maybe tomorrow or whenever possable, get a more powerful heater because i agree u prolly dont wanna push the less powerfull ones too far and have them either malfunction and over heat or shut right off.

Good luck
