If you are going to build this, if possible switch the DHT for a Sensirion SHT40, 41 or a similar one. They are way better, and unless you are sourcing from Aliexpress binned stuff, they are similarly priced.

My point was that "captivity reproduction" should not be a key point in the viability of a specie. Octopus can live in captivity (albeit stressed!), but for some reason their larva don't survive. Do they deserve to go extinct
