Hey everyone, so I finally got my hygrometer for my beardies tank and its reading at a steady 45% which is typical for my room as my crested geckos tanks read the same.
I'm having issues on finding ways to decrease my beardies humidity to the proper level of 30-40% without dropping my cresteds humidity as well. (There's is around 50% during the day and 85%-100% at night which is done by misting and a fogger that goes inside the tank). My cresteds are no where near my beardie for that purpose.
I don't mist the tank at all currently and I keep his food dish and water dish away from his basking spot. His water dish isn't big but its not exactly small small? Should I use the repti rock dishes instead that has both a smaller water dish and food dish as he's only 8 inches and probably doesn't need a food dish as big as I have (6 inches in length, water dish is probably 4?). Current vivarium is a 36x16x12 until he gets bigger and ill switch to a 4ftx2ftx2ft.
Besides changing the dishes to a smaller size, what else can I do to lower his humidity so its about 35% and I have some leeway either way? Thank you! First time beardie owner and feel like I'm already failing haha
