Hi,

The thermostat probe is recommended to go between the UTH and the bottom of the tank to avoid the problem you are having just now.

How did you increase the humidity? did you spray the tank?

I think the evaporation of the water is cooling down the probe of your thermometer (but that is, frankly just a guess ).

Have you treated the tank lid with the foil to help keep in the humidity?

Did you insulate the back. bottom and two sides of the tank to help with temps?

Just trying to get an idea of what your situation really is and what can be changed to help it.
