Hello!
For the time being I dont have my dream/ideal set-up, but im saving for it.
In the meantime I make the most of an Glasstank, which I isolated the sides of.
I manage to hold the humidity up by using orchid bark, kinda messy but it works.
I have some questions about placing the probe for my On/Off (Non-Proportional) Thermostats who controls the UTH.
UTH covers 1/3 of the bottom of the tank and its attached at the outside bottom. the tank is elevated 1 inch above the table.
Thermostat similar to this:
I have read many different things about this and ended up taping the probe on the outside(in the middle) of the UTH (not between the UTH and glasstank-bottom), with tape. Is this the best spot?
I have the thermostat at 92, and maybe 2-3 inches of substrate, but the temps is slightly colder than optimal, I Also have a 40w bulb that heats as well, to keep the ambient temp up.
I also wondering about replacing "Bulb-heat" with a Radiant heater. any thoughts on this?
Thanks in advance!
