    Wood-Terrarium Temperature Question

    Hey guys, do you guys lower the temperature at night?
    I have a Thermostat Control 2 (not the Pro one), whos night temperature could not be set. My question is: is that a problem to have a constant temperature on the warm side 29-31°C (85-87°F) and the cool side 25-27°C (77-81°F), day n night?
    Or do I have to manually turn the temperature down at night (warm side 26°C, cool side 24°C) in spite of these both-side temps in order that my bp has a day-night temp as in the wild?

    Sorry for the Celsius unit I live in Germany 😅

    From what I've read it's fine to not have a nighttime drop in temperature.

    I don't use a night temp drop with any of my snakes. Never have in all my years keeping snakes.

    Thank you all for the answers. This has been bothering me for all this time. Till now I thought about buying a new thermostat all the time. Now I can sit down and relax.
