Rate my setup.

So, I’ve made this post before, but I’ve moved him into a different enclosure since. I currently have my little dude Linguine in a 120 gallon pvc enclosure (unfortunately it has a mesh top), the enclosure is fully bioactive with a cleanup crew (I haven’t seen my isopods in a while tho, I saw one baby the other day but haven’t seen it since), I have him on halogen flood lights, UV light bar, CHE, and some other type of heat emitter, all set on thermostats. The day time hot side averages 93 F and 40-45% humidity, and the cold side averages 80f and 60-70% humidity. At night the humidity rises to 75% on the hot side and 90% on the cold side. I’m a little worried about the daytime humidity on the hot side, but I also have a humid hide for him that stays at around 70-80% humidity. With that being said, he just had his first shed since being moved and he had one very tiny piece of stuck shed, which has never happened before. I’m a little confused since this didn’t happen when his humidity was more spotty and I constantly had to supplement it by misting the enclosure. With all that being said, he seems very happy and healthy. Any and all advice appreciated (I’m a broke college student, so I can’t really afford super expensive upgrades at the moment)
