So, obviously my cool end is too cool. I have the probe placed underneath the substrate, just as I do the warm end. My UTH is attached to Nashua aluminum tape which is then taped around the edges to the bottom of the bin with the aforementioned tape. I'm using one rated for 10-20g. I'm wondering if I need to get a second smaller UTH for the cool end. Right now, my dude stays in his warm hide. Advice?
