right now, i don't have any substrate down. will that effect the temps? i was planning on using astroturf or newspaper. all i have in the sterilite right now is the hides and water dish.

i just checked the temps again and they are 82.5* on the cool side, 85.8* on the warm side and humidity at 75%. that's with the setting on 'medium'. oh, and is 75% for humidity too high?

anyways, i'm going to fumble around with the temps for a few more days, and if they don't seem to be coming around, i'll take the heating pad back.
