Tubs for me!

    Tubs for me!
    Well,

    I finally went to tubs.. or am in the process. I have one snake on tubs.

    Thermostat is taped to the UTH under the tub, thermometer inside the tub ontop the UTH with a suction cup, covered with substrate.

    The thermostat keeps shutting off; its set to 90, and the thermometer only reads 85 so I keep tweaking it up a bit. Is this right? or will the thermostat eventually stabilize the substrate temps at the same temps of the UTH?

    As I was tweaking, I took my girl out to feel the substrate just to make sure it wasnt too warm and that the thermometer probe hadnt been dug up. All appeared well.

    I did notice that there was condensation on the inside of the hide.
    Should I be worried.

    There are 12 holes on each side of the tubs, and no condensate anywhere else inside the tub.

    ATM I'm not TOO concerned, she is going into shed.

    For my hot spot to be 90 I have to set my thermostat to 93 degrees. This give me an ambient temp of 80-81 degrees in my tubs...

    Any opinions on the condensation inside her hide aspect?
