    Are both the tanks exactly the same? Are both the humidity gauges exactly the same?

    both gauges are the same. one tank is a 20 gallon fish tank with screen top and one is a 30 gallon breeder.

    What type of humidity gauges are you using? The dial guages are pretty much useless.

    EDIT: missed the closet comment

    The two enclosures are different sizes so there are going to be differences.

    What type of substrate are you using? What type of heating elements are you using on each enclosure?
