Hey all, picked up my first P.Imperator today. I had a few questions:
1. I have a ceramic heat lamp with bonus glow feature. Would it be wise, since I live in Southern California, to leave the light on only at night? Or can I just leave it on and off during the day and then completely off at night? (Normally, the room temp drops to maybe 65F inside the room at night.)
2. Is it highly necessary to have a humidity monitor? I'm basically using the old setup for an T that i originally had to move to another enclosure. (I have layered coconut fiber substrate on top of Zoo Med small bark chips that I soaked in water before layering on the bottom of the enclosure.) Like some T's, can I just mist the substrate once a day and will that take care of the humidity issue?
3.Would you say this setup is appropriate?
