    Hygrometer

    Hi all,

    Quick question,
    Where do I put the sensor of the hygrometer in my tank. See pic below?

    Right side is the hotspot, around 87
    Left side is the cool side, around 80.

    Right side lamp is an CHE with an thermostat. Left side an LED light.

    Best regards
    Menno

    I would place it in the center of the tank, to get an idea of the average humidity. Just try not to put it near the water bowl. I have two sensors, one on each side and I can say that the hot side always has lower humidity (because I use CHE's and that dries out the air)
    No cage is too large - nature is the best template - a snoot can't be booped too much

    I personally put two in each of my enclosures, one at each end.
    With just one, I would place it somewhere towards the middle so it gets an "average" relative humidity reading for the enclosure.
