Its hard to give an opinion on the wattage without an exact temp. Are either of them spending time on the warm side? You can always use the old fashioned rule of thumb, if they spend all the time on the cool side, its too hot, all the time on the warm side, it's too cold. You could try the infrared, do you have any heat on them at night?
i had an extra infrared light laying around, so i put that in yesterday, didnt really make a diffrence. the male is always in the moist hide in the middle..he rarely leaves, and when he does, he walks around for a few minutes, probably to defecate, and then returns. the female, unless i move her, she does not leave under the carpet..i even check on them lastnight and they were like this, i moved her before bed, but she quickly returned. :/ she is all over the place under there, so i dont think the temps are too hot.
