Hi guys iv set up a 3ft viv for my royal got a 100w ceramic and a pulse stat and a digi ther my problem is that even thow iv set my stat by the digi ther as i was told to do the temp will hold at 32 for about 3 days then drop to 29.7 and not go back up iv changed the digi to see if that was faulty but same thing happend.could it be the ceramic? I hope not as only brought it last week along with the stat? Any clues what could be wrong the probe for the digi is on the aspen under the ceramic??

Stick your thermostat probe and thermometer probe directly under the bulb, that will steady the hot spot temp.

mine does this too, its just the cold weather im afraid, the stat is having to work harder, i was advised to put an 150wat ceramic in to make it not have to work so hard so as soon as they arrive i will be doing that

Where is the stat prob, it should be under ceramic or just off to one side.if temp has dropped turn stat up a bit until temp holds
