I have one large UTH that covers about half of the left side of the 10g tank set at 80. I have a hide in the corner on the left with water next to it. I have 1/3 of the top uncovered on this same side.


The other UTH is smaller and its set at 90 directly under his hide on the right. I purchased a magnetic cover over 2/3's of the top. (they are used to cover floor vents in your home to insulate the home) The magnetic cover is fairly thick.

I have both sensors stuck directly to the glass with newspaper on top.

The sensor on the hot side reads 42% and the cool side reads 41%.

He spends 85-90% of his time in the hides. He is out everyonce and a while and seems to be exploring or drinking water. He took a huge crap today too. Not sure if that means anything or not. I have not seen him get in the water yet. Most of his time is spent in the hide and he likes to peek his head out to look around.

I have added a second water dish next to his hide on the hot side to try and increase the humidity, but have not noticed a change yet. I also have misted his tank with water a couple times today.

Not sure if the location of the sensors will accurately pick up humidity levels.

I am trying to figure out how to add a pic...
