now its up to 82.3 so i will keep an eye on it to see if it continues to raise i will remove the plastic thats on half of the screen lid. if that doesnt help i wonder if i should do the UTH (it never really did much 9 dont think) or remove the plexiglass covering 3/4 of the top. i use the plexiglass for humidity

so it got back to 85 was 85.8 so i unplugged the UTH. lets see what happens now...

I am having the same problems, just got home and the temp on the frog cages was 90. I had to turn off the lights and mist the cages.
I usually use an ac unit in the summer just to keep the room at 80. I also want to switch all my frog lights to led because that does not produce very much heat.

90? Is your frog ok? That's way to hot. They can get kidney failure from heat stress if your frog gets too hot for too long.

Yea he was fine, It was the baby cornuta's cage too..was dug into the wet eco earth. The temp was probably only that high for 10 minutes as my climate controller emails me when the temp reaches 90, so I shut everything down except for a few lights, the cage is still at 85 right now with a fan running and all my windows open though. I was not prepared for this heat yet.

Good to hear. Hopefully you can prevent this from happening again.
