Precise Temperature and Humidity Monitoring for Hermit Crab Habitats
The Zoo Med Hermit Crab Dual Thermometer and Humidity Gauge is a two-in-one monitoring tool designed to help hermit crab keepers maintain the precise environmental conditions their crabs need to thrive.

The glow-in-the-dark design adds practical visibility in low-light environments, making it easy to check readings during evening care routines without disturbing your hermit crabs. A reliable, easy-to-read monitoring tool is an essential part of any well-maintained hermit crab habitat.
Sold as 1 gauge.

FAQ
What does this gauge measure?
