Bedding, Hides, & New Tank Setup...but some problems!

[DarkEros07]

Thanks! I already have tinfoil over the top. I just forgot to mention it. I have the temp thing outside of the tank cuz I have a chinchillia and i need to know the temp of that room to make sure he isnt getting over heated. We are moving the Chinchillia outta there and into another rooom today tho. I have a another stick on temp thingy on the other side of the tank. It only goes to 86 but thats the cool side that I put it on. I figured that would be okay for now. I will deff be gettin somethin to controll the uth.

thanks for letting me know about the whole having to get used to it. how long should i wait before i worry if he isnt using his hides?

I cant seem to get the humidity to stay above 40% for very long. I mist his tank all the time but doesnt seem to help any. It will get up to 60 and then drop within like 10 mins. I know theres barely any humidity in my house atm tho. We arent in the humid season just yet here in fl. lol. I hate humidity! Bring on the ac! lol. anyways. thanks everyone!

Also tempguns.com is having a sale on their PE-2 temp gun, you can use it for any spot in the tank to take temps, and it's only $35.00. I LOVE mine...I use it at least 3 times a day...and you'll need a dimmer for that UTH...they definitely get way too hot.
