    Re: I need some help please

    Hi,

    It depends a lot on what your temp and humidity readings at the different parts of the tank are.

    Generally I would have the lamp either on the warm end above the UTH or in the middle to raise the ambients to 80f in the cool end hide and have the thermostat on the UTH keep the warm end ( inside the hide ) at 92f

    I would also move your second hide to the cool side so the snake can choose from the whole temp range and use a smaller waterbowl if need be or place it in the middle.

    Once you know where you need the lamp to be to get your temps straight go find the screen top tinfoil treatment thread to help fix your humidity.
