| looks good but why do you have 2 water dishes. the humidity may drastically rise and cause RI. |

| Well spotted that he likes to hide under his water bowls and a great idea to give him what he likes but empty! Good idea lilmissvix! HannahB is right though, you can easily add toilet tubes or cardboard boxes as hides with no extra cost. You are doing really well with Menga, which is great to see. xxx |

Looks nice, but you may find he wont go out into the open space and will skirt along the edges.
How are you heating it?, controling the heat source?, and what are you using to measure the temp? |

Sb is right, you will need to get a digital thermometer or too, luckily they are pretty cheap. |

those are no good vix, they arent accurate and on the wall they are measuring ambient air temps rather than floor temp. digi ones are fab, and there are some super cheap ones on

I have four of these and they are perfect, the postage really is fast too!
I dont mean to hi-jack this post i have just bought two of these thermometer's could you post a pic on how you have got them set up in your viv please.
P.s your viv looks cool like the hangy basket
Regards Chris & Cornflake
simply run the probe through the cable hole in the back of the viv, or whatever it is you have, then place the probe right next to your stat probe, in the very centre of the heat mat. |
