Temperature probe behind sytrofoam?

[kwright]

Hey there! So I just bought a thermo/humidity gauge for my exo nano, but the giant block of styrofoam inside the terrarium is posing issues. The probe holes in the lid make it so I can only put the probes behind the styrofoam and not in the main tank area. It seems like it just wouldn't work that well this way. What is anyone else's experience?

I wouldn't want it back there. Styrofoam insulates, so if you are heating the enclosure it will read closer to your room temp than the enclosure temp. For humidity, I can't imagine it would be accurate either. Maybe you can cut a small 1" hole in the foam to expose the sensor to the main enclosure?
