Re: Why is my humidity so low?

This seems to be the most accurate answer. Because as soon as i turn off the lamp, the humidity will jump high and maintain the same till i turn the lamp back on, then it will lower again. However, the tank is pretty big, and i dont know what else will be able to raise the temperature to 83F.
