That's a little high. Normally 60 tops and 70 when in shed.

I cant get it to go any lower. They are housed in a pvc rack system. Brand new. There are two rows eight holes in the front of the tub. 3/8" holes. There substrate is newspaper. Cant get any dryer than that. There isn't any condensation on the tubs. But the thermometer is reading 80% humidity. The thermometer is on the water bowl end ( cool end ). I will move the thermometer on the opposite end ( heat tape end ) and see what happens. If that doesn't work i will buy new thermometers. I am using digital ones now, not bad either. Not to cheap.
