I have a probe in the back of the upper left tub and another one in the front of the lower right one. I can get the tubs within 1.5° of each other. Do you think this is an acceptable amount of gradient? It holds temps impeccably consistent, never varying more than 0.2°. Thoughts? The OCD in me would like the temps to be as close as possible. I've tried varying the speed of the fan in order to get the temps closer. I've put the probes together in different places and the probes are about 0.2° apart.

I would say that as long as the temperature for each individual tub remains steady, than a degree and a half of variance should not greatly affect the eggs. The only thing that might happen would be longer incubation times for the cooler tubs. Hope this helps!
