The humidity is definitely difficult to keep up which is why I was wanting an UTH. I already check the temps when I walk by the tank (habit) so checking it frequently isn't really a problem. Right now my T8 is about to be divided so I can do some testing on the unoccupied side while my new ball is in quarantine.

Does anyone have recommendations on an UTH pad that is relatively cheap (preferably no more than 40ish) that would work well for a divided T8? What size pad am I after?
