The humidity has been getting a bit high in my beardies tank mainly at night, and the in tank dehumidifiers I got don't really seem to be doing anything. I have a dehumidifier for my room as well and that's definitely helping but it's not quite enough for how humid it's been recently. Just wondering if anyone could let me know what you've had success with. Thanks!

How high is a bit high for you?

It's natural for humidity levels to increase during the night. Respirations drop at night as temperature drops, causing high humidity to pretty much be a non-issue.

I wake up to it between 50-60% and currently during the day it fluctuates between 41 and 42%. The high humidity at night not being a problem is good to know though. I've been worried about him developing a respiratory infection as a result.

Edit: Im not home most of the day but my dad says the highest it ends up getting during the day was 45% today at least. Im looking at in tank dehumidifiers and things because I would just open a window, but it's usually at least 50-60% humidity outside where I live.

Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
