    Day/Night Cycles with temperature?

    Quick question. I have a Herpstat2 which would allow me to set up a Day/Night cycle with temperatures. It's currently disabled, but should I be switching the temperatures at night to a lower setting?

    The daytime temp is set to 93 degrees F. If the answer to the above is yes, what should the night temps be ?

    thanks!

    TEMPERATURE
    ~80F (ambient temps)
    ~90F (basking temps)
    75 or below is unhealthy
    Night drops in temps are not necessary or desired

    If you were to do a drop it would be in the ambient air temp only. This is the hardest to control. If you are in an unregulated room it is likely to drop anyway.
