IMO I would reconsider how low your hot side is, at the very least make sure the cool side doesn't get too cool. I let ambient temps adjust the tub temps, but I don't want the cool side to go under 75.
so can i just introduce them any time i want?

More or less. Some people breed year round, other just in the winter months. They seem to generally breed better in the winter months November through March. I really think ambient temp change is enough to do it for them. They also really like storms, so pair them up during a storm, or right before a storm.
