Hi everyone,
I was wondering if I could ask your opinion on the temps that I'm getting in the viv. I think they're about ok but would value your input!
I'm getting 31.1 at the hot end, 30.1 in the middle and 25.6 at the cooler end. Noodle has spent the last couple of nights firmly in the middle of the viv but this morning has taken up residence in the hot end hide. He's just coming out of blue so should be shedding any time now.
I have to say I'm adjusting the day and night time temps by hand at the moment but may invest in a timer (I've got a pulse habistat) with a 150w ceramic.
Thanks! |

| Yeah the temps sound perfect if your using the pulse stat that should maintain the temps during the night, would not worry much about cool end temps at night as they would expect a slight drop in temp anyway, as long as the hot end stays the same you will be fine. |

| That's interesting! So you wouldn't turn the temp down at night then? |

| So, just to confirm, my temps look fine for both day and night time running so there's no need to turn them down at night... |
