For savannahs in my experience, I keep the dirt moist under the top layer so humidity can be monitored by where they lay at. I keep T's basking spot at 130-150 depending on where he is. There is a layer under the main basking platform that stays at about 110 or so and he spends some time there. I will get some updated pics of him and his cage later on tonight. Just look for the pics in the monitor section later

Its a matter of oppinion. Some people say 90 is all they need. I would say 90 would be ok but it would take longer to bask off a large meal. T will sit for about 10 minutes at the hot spot then move away a bit so its not so warm.

2 different readings
are those temps suface or air?
usually a surface temp of 120-130F has an air temp of 110-115F. my surface temps for the rescue savs run 130-ish. however my ackies go higher than that.
