    The heat pad, per instructions recommended size mounting if you don't have a stand to allow full airflow underneath. I wasn't sure, but it's keeping the cool side of the tank at about 78 degrees and the hot side runs about 90 degrees.
    The pad is heating the glass and the glass is keeping a steady temp. I do not have one on the bottom.

    Yes, i need to go grab a humidity gauge today. In Seattle, especially in winter humidity is up so I'm not overly worried, but I will get the gauge of course to be sire. a misting bottle will be helpful.

    I also plan to toss more branches for climbing. She took well to the new cage, I watched her last night exploring. Head wobble is very minimal.

    What other recommendations do you have? Is a bottom pad heater a must?

    Also I have the daylight lamp on a timer. How do I go about setting up the heaters on a thermostat?
