    OK I have a question

    OK so yes my humidity is better than it has been but how well would a waterfall or something like that work in my 55 gal tank with my BP? now I dont know why but he loves to get in the lip of the top of the tank where the gap is between the top and lid so I am more afraid if its not on the ground he will knock it over. But i am trying to find diff ways to get my humidity kinda steady. I have the moss which since I use heat lamps they dont stay wet very long I mist at least twice a day. Any ideas ??

    It's alright for humidity to fluctuate during the day, so just keep up on spraying the moss and substrate as needed. A waterfall can help with a bit of a humidity boost, and if you leave the bottom of the waterfall off, it is actually a nice large water bowl as well. You could also just put a simple water pump or air pump into a big water bowl, and the action of the pump bubbling the water would work much the same. Doesn't look as nice as a waterfall, though.

    I use a Tupperware bowl with an inch or two of water in the bottom of it and then fill it with moss, keeping the inch or so of water in the bottom so the moss won't dry out. Then put it next to the hot side hide.
