you guys are awesome! Thanks for the help I really sincerely appreciate it all. Well I cover the sides and back of the viv with black construction paper and am going to put the newspaper in right away.

I have a thermometer with a hydrometer combo digital thingy majigy and I put the thermometer probe under the substrate(aspen) where the uth is. I put the humidity probe in the middle of the glass on the back wall of the tank.


I also keep a heat lamp on about 8 inches above the viv, pointed around the middle of the back wall. I turn it off at night time

I am not sure if I have room for another identical hide in the viv, here is what it looks like



I keep a damp towel on top to keep the humidity around 50-60 percent in the viv at all times, as I dont want to mist it too too often due to bacteria growth.


What type of bedding should I use if I will be feeding in the viv, as it seems aspen could be digested pretty easily and that cant be great for him.

Also what temp should the uth be at to avoid burns?
