Ok, finally got my T8's setup and have a humidity question:
Cages are setup with lights and RHP's from Pro-Products, using Cypress Mulch for Bedding (roughly 2") deep. Using Herpstat 2 and digital Hygrometer/Therm combo from Xikar.
I have the probes from the Herpstat on the opposite end of the RHP, right above the bedding, mounted on the back wall. I also have the Hygrom mounted on the back wall on the cool end as well.
I put the cypress mulch in and installed the glass doors, turned on the lights, set the Herpstat 2 for 90. The probes are reading 79 - 81 on the cool end, but the humidity is reading 90% on my Xikar with an ambient of 90 also.
I don't have my Bp's in the cages yet, but am concerned about controlling the humidity. I'm not sure if I should reduce the Herpstat Temp Settings a little lower or remove some of the bedding? I don't even have water in the water dishes yet.
thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
