Brand: SunGrow
Monitor Your Pet’s Environment
An appropriate Environmental Temperature Range (ETR) within your pet's enclosure not only gives them more energy and makes them more active, but it also guards them from contracting any possible ailment. Different species of animals have their own ideal living conditions. While some prefer a more dry or cold climate, others may need to live in a hot and humid habitat. As a dutiful pet owner, it is highly recommended that you add the SunGrow Dual Thermo-Hygro Meter in order to precisely monitor both the temperature and humidity levels in their enclosures. Maintaining a proper environment means that your living creatures are far less likely to get stressed and are far more likely to thrive and live long happy lives.
How To Read the Gauges
Dependable and long-lasting, the 3” x 0.9” SunGrow Hermit Crab Habitat Humidity & Temperature Meter is large enough that it is easy to read but small enough to not distract from your pet’s native habitat. Brightly colored sections make it easy to get a general reading from a distance, while thick and thin black lines and detailed labeling provide an accurate measurement up close. The temperature is measured in Fahrenheit and has a range of 0℉ to 120℉. Below 60℉ is colored blue and above 80℉ is colored red, so that the remaining green section signifies the perfect hermit crab temperature range of 60℉ to 80℉. The hygrometer gauge measures the moisture content from 0% to 100%. Moisture level under 40% is coded in blue, above 70% is coded red, leaving a green comfort zone in the middle of 40% - 70%.
Where to Place the Measuring Unit
To get the most accurate readings of the temperature and moisture content, here are a few helpful hints and recommendations.
If your pet’s habitat is small to medium-sized, you will want to place the SunGrow Thermometer/Hygrometer Combo Unit inside and on the floor of your tank.
✔ KEEP YOUR HERMIT CRABS HEALTHY --- Happy and healthy hermit crabs desire a narrow range of temperature between 78° and 82° Fahrenheit and a humidity range of 60-80% moisture. In this ideal environment, your pet hermit crabs are able to digest and metabolize their food better and it also facilitates shedding. SunGrow’s Dual Thermometer & Hygrometer is an easy way to monitor your pet’s vital elements.
✔ EASY TO READ COLOR CODING --- Designed to be easy to check from a distance, the humidity and temperature measuring ranges are conveniently broken into distinct color-coded sections. When the moving pointer is in the Blue, the temperature is too cold and the humidity too dry. An indicator in the red means too much heat and heavy humidity. The ideal comfort zone for both measures is green, and you are good to go!
✔ PERFECT FOR BOTH PETS AND PLANTS --- Whether you have a terrarium filled with golden clubmoss and starfish plants, a vivarium of frogs and geckos or a tank crawling with hermit crabs, the temperature and humidity gauge is an important accessory. Maintaining their native habitat is crucial for them to grow and flourish.
✔ NO ASSEMBLY OR INSTALLATION REQUIRED --- As soon as your SunGrow Hermit Crab Humidity & Temperature Meter arrives, it is ready to be placed into your hermit crab enclosure, terrarium or vivarium. There is no assembly required and a handy kickstand is conveniently built into the body of the gauge. Simply open the latch and it props itself up on the bottom of your tank. For other household uses, there is a hanging hole on the back.
✔ VARIOUS USES OUTSIDE OF THE TANK --- Along with being very useful inside the tank, the Thermo-Hygrometer Combination from SunGrow is suitable for monitoring both indoor and outdoor environments. The analog climate gauge can be equipped in restaurants, hotel lobbies, gardens, offices, classrooms, laboratories, homes, and workshops.
