thanks i try to have all my set ups set and ready to roll before i get anything lol. and i gotta say im scared of how cheap it was to set this up.. i got three tubs set up for under 50$ which means the girlfriend better start keepin me in check or i could have a serious collection forming hahaha

Place the accurate in the tub so u can use the humiditycand secondary temp features.

And nice tub. Is that the one with like 5 latches on it? Snake is not getting out of that one. Haha

If you look on the back of the Acu-Rite, at the bottom, there are 5 little slots. Inside there are the sensors for the humidity and the ambient or "Indoor" temperature. The probe only measures the "outdoor" temp, which you should be getting from under the substrate above the heat source.

Here is a photo of one of my tubs. The Acu-Rite unit is velcro'd on the cool end. What you can't see in the pic is that right above the substrate line is a hole on each end just big enough for the probe to fit through, so the wire runs out on the cool end, around the back of the tub and in through the warm end and under the substrate, where it is hot glued above the heat pad. These probe access holes are hidden by the hide box on one end and the little branch on the other end. Hopefully this will help with some ideas...

Sick setup bro! I hear those bumblepees are rare in these parts though :D

mm guess ill have to get two little humidity gauges then lol there goes another 5 bucks, just have to remmember that for my next tub set up thats all

i think i need to find some little kinda branch tho so it can have something to help with its shed

they dont really need anything to help shed just good humidity :gj:
