The enclosure Axl is in is 38.5" x 23" (a repurposed rabbit hutch) where would the best placement be for a single hydro/thermo meter or is this enclosure large enough to require two of these combo meters?

In that case, I will only have access to one for the next week, so the best placement for a single one would be best at the moment.

I would use 2. Do not use the meter ones they are junk. Use the digital ones. Place 1 on the basking side and 1 on the cool side. You should always have an infrared temp gun too.

One should be placed the farthest away from any heat source, and at tort height.

The 2nd can go any place you like, are curious or concerned about.

Use the temp gun daily for other tanks and do have the digital ones!

Thank you!
