How should I hang up a digital probe thermometer in the tank?

I just got a new probe thermometer and put it on the basking spot and I was wondering how I should keep it in there. When I came home today I noticed some nibble marks on it. Should I just keep it in there when I need to see the temp or always?

Get some two sided tape stick the reader on the side of the tank take the probe and wrap around the reader - you don't need to leave the probe on the basking spot -- check it every so often

I use these Command hooks off of Amazon. The probe end fits in them perfectly. Then when I test the basking spot, I pop the probe out and move it.

I can’t wait to see Dr.Wilson be a big dragon but I try to cherish hard the moments while he still fits in my hand 🦎
It’s been a month since I’ve joined bd.org! It feels like it’s been longer than that, but I’m glad I’m here and apart of this lovely community!
I can feel her staring into my soul demanding food
She was having a staring contest with a mealworm. I guess I never taught her to not play with her food, lol.
