hey all, new to the forum and would like to say thanks for all the great knowledge helping me get my tank setup properly.
i have a 20g with foil covering 3/4 of the screen. i have 2 zoomed uth's. one with a herpstat on my hot side, stays between 90-93...and one on the cool side with a reptitemp, 79-84. My humidity is around 55-60 without a heat lamp, 35-40 with. and thats with the lamp on the foil with holes punched in it. as for now im going with lamp and misting occasionally.
the temps in the house vary by about 8 degrees(72 at night 80 during the day when no one is home) my only issue is my ambient temp at night, the ambient temp during the day is around 82 at night it drops as low as 74 at times. all i've read says to shoot for 80, but i can only get that high with a lamp that kills my humidity(even with the lamp night ambient is 78).
anyone have a suggestion to help raise my ambient without lowering humidity? or is the ambient even an issue, seeing as 95% of her time is spent on a uth?
