Ya he does. He usually comes out at night and a few times during the day but stays in his caves most of the time. He likes curling up on the big log in the top right fork and hangs out. As far as the temps inside the cave they are the same as everywhere else. Just one or two degrees off. 90-93 on warm side and 80-83 on the cool side. Usually stays around there but my room temperature fluctuates some so the temps in the tank fluctuate a few degrees here and there but not enough to cause concern. The cypress bedding has really helped with my humidity though. It was staying at a constant 40% but the cypress has bumped it up to 50%. I always keep damp paper towels in both caves so both of his sheds have been really good since thats where he does it. I just cant wait for that textured background to come in cause i really think it will add the finishing touches to it. Im just not too crazy about the white poster board for the back though the plants and the darker substrate have really made a huge difference.
