i redid the tank this morning, bo was happy to get to play on the bed and was checking out EVERYTHING on my bed.
anyway i have a pic of the tank now, i added more water in there, and my humidity is better its staying 42%, up from 31% (however if i put the unit down on the floor of the cage the humidity shoots up) i did check the temp of the pad directly on the gass and got a reading of 92 degree's this was after keeping it there for approx 20-30 min.

BUT my temp's are down today im hoping thats due to the winter weather outside (its only 20 degrees today)
but my temps are reading the same on both sides 76.6 on hot and 76.5 on cold im concerned about this temp change.. i have the top covered and it itsnt doing anything to help.. and i dont have any form of heat whatsoever on the cold side.

yesterday i was getting low 80's on hot and mid to high 70's on cold

anyway here are my pic's from today
also i found a 20 gal long tank for 15 bucks or a 29 long for 20 bucks on craigslist im thinking of going ahead and picking this up and storing it until needed. that price is AWSOME
