    A good temp range would be 25 Celsius on left and the right is perfect but I doubt they will get too hot because they're always on the move so I think your enclosure is perfect.

    My mum won't let me so I don't have any yet but I would like to one day so yes I did read that somewhere. I like researching the care of exotic animals because I'm fascinated by them. Just because I don't own them doesn't mean I'm wrong.

    Hi,
    Just be sure the temp on the L does not exceed that .
    I stick aquarium thermometers into the soil, they are easy to move around...makes a great back up

    Have fun

    Probably its good idea to buy two of them to see exact temperatures , currently using IR ,which is portable and you can check any places, but struggling with another one electric one, which supose to show me what was lowest and highest temp and humidity.
    That lamp on a left in this picture was removed, its heating spot lamp, who makes air in that area only 66% humidity, so air not so wet like everywhere else. How do you think did I need to work on same direction?
    Today we trying different way, I put simple 11w lamp in heat spot dome instead of 50w and connected small heat mat outside vivarium in left corner.

    Those temperatures are just fine. Just make sure that when the lights go out the temperatures don't drop too low (try to stay above 17C?). Like Lynn said, also be very careful about temps going above 27C, but I think because there seems to be a big gradient you should be fine. What kind of lid do you have on that tank?
