The humidity in my terrarium is about 40-50%. Any tips on how to bring it down.

It is? Isn’t 30-40% ideal?

How long can a spike/dip go for before it becomes too unhealthy?

My reading is messed up, temp won’t go up, humidity won’t go down. 🥲

My heat mat is new 🫠 EVERYTHING in that terrarium is new. 😭

#

oh do you have a heatmat?

#

so thermometers read air temps. which heatmats are horrible at warming up- so that's probably why

#

they're also inefficient heat sources to begin with but yeh. you're not gonna get good air temps with a heatmat
