okay IM GETTING CLOSER
if you'll look in the pic's where the thermometer is sitting i left i there, but removed the cave that was beside of it (its really to small anyway) but i took some advise of a friends and used duck tape as my covering on top of wire (except where light is and leaving ventilation around light)
here are my temps as of now (humidity is a bit high to me so i thought if i took the smallest bowl out it will help)
temp's
hot side 80.5
cold side 74.5
top of driftwood 91.0
Humidity is 74%
temp's are still rising just a bit after the tape and i just took the small bowl on top of cave out
