Welcome to the forum!!! I'm a huge King fan, and MBKs are stunning.

Just a friendly FYI....those dial style analog thermometers and hygrometers are unfortunately junk. They can be inaccurate up to 15°/%. I don't even know why they're still on the market.

The suction cups, believe it or not, can be dangerous as well. I've read some horror stories of snakes getting stuck to them causing scale damage and other injuries.

Anyway, welcome!
