Just wondering what you all do with the wires for your thermometer and stats? Monty seems to love moving the wires arounf and it just looks messy tbh! wondering if i could drill the side of the viv and poke the sensors through? not sure this would give an accurate reading though?

You can drill the side that's fine :) I use zip ties to keep them in place :)
