Correct heat and humidity ranges

You should build it up a little more, in case it drops any more.

i'd say try and higher it if you can. 70-80 is best (although i usually recommend 72-78 F becuase of what some other sites say about it, i just pick what is in between). I can't really get my temp. to stay balanced. I am saving up $$$ for a UTH.

Well the odd part is it increases about to 68 to 69% on the humidity gauge when I turn the fan on so I try to keep it on.

Do you have a glass tank? They hold humidity and temperature better than any other. Wrap is okay, but a glass lid is much better and cleaner.
