Hope this isn't too dumb of a question.
I have a Ruthveni Kingsnake.
Optimal temperature is "Between 80-85 degrees with a nighttime drop of 5-10 deg. Proper temperature control is critical."
I have a undertank heater on half of the tank to have a hot and cool end. But where do I stick the probe for the thermostat, and what would I set it for? I will have about 3" of sand and wood as a substrate, so would I put the probe right over the heater, under the substrate?
Then where would I measure the actual tank temperature? Above the substrate? Surface of the substrate? Below?
Or am I thinking too hard?
