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.Mr. Hermy Crab wrote:I live in the Northwestern part of South Carolina in the USA and my average humidity is about 65-66. Do I need to increase it or will my crabs do just fine???
