    Humidity and Temperature
    I have read a few places and just want to check and see if what I am researching is correct.

    The cool end of the tub should be between 75-80 and the warm end should be between 85-88.

    Humidity should be abou 60%

    Advice on whether this is true or not would be much appreciated.

    Temps I shoot for:

    78-80 cool end with 75ish as low as I like it to go
    86-88 warm end
    90-92 directly on the hot spot

    I had a question about too much humidity. I recently put one of my bp's on coco husk, and he is at 80%. I know if he was shedding that'd be great, if he's not should I be seeking means to reduce it. For the time being I flick his infrared on for 5 mins and turn it off at 60.

    I did read somewhere if there isn't condensation on the windows it shouldn't be a problem but I am curious.
    I'm not looking for an RI

    I would try and get it down to 60%. Just keep string the coco husk and help it dry out a bit. Sometime when water gets spilled in the tub, the humidity will jump up, but I remove the wet Aspen bedding and it goes down. Humidity at 80% for short times will be fine, I just wouldn't keep it at that level
