Morning everyone, as a new owner can I ask for help please, yesterday I went to our local reptile breeder/seller to pick up a digi therm and a couple of other items and I was told I need to keep a moss tub in the viv all the time but after reading all the care sheets, setting up sheets and shedding info I'm now confused as I thought you only put one in when you see the first signs of a shed because of the humidity levels rising to high. Can someone please tell me which is correct.

Many thanks.

I have a tub in with my sakes but I only moisten it when they shed. The rest of the time it's just an extra hide.
