I just got a P. imparator, my first arachnid, a few days ago and I have been having some issues with regulating tempurature and humidity in the tank. Even using a heatpad and a UV light, I can't seem to get the tempurature on the hot end of the tank over 80. I've also been having problems with the tank drying out. I tried to stop using the UV lamp to fix the humidity problem but that caused the tempurature to plummet even further. I also tried closing the mesh lid of the tank with tape but that didn't seem to do much. Below is my set up. What am I doing wrong?
