    best humidifiers for a tank and AP Plastics Enclosures

    Hello All!
    I plan on getting a second snake and need a humidifier for the tank. It is a 20 gallon tank and I use Cypress mulch. I am also wondering what a good humidifier for a Animal Plastics T-10 and T-12 enclosure is because I plan on ordering one soon.
    If anybody has any suggestions, I would appreciate it.
    Thank you!

    You shouldn't need a humidifier for a T10 or a T12. I own both and haven't had humidity issues with good substrate

    Use a RHP to keep your ambient temps up and coconut husk for substrate and you'll be fine.

    Re: best humidifiers for a tank and AP Plastics Enclosures

    Hello again, Mr. Misha:
    I use the Tropicaire air exchanger in my T-10 enclosure. I found that the humidity stays at 50% perfectly when it is running (of course that is after the Cypress mulch dries out.) I plan on getting a BCC Constrictor tomorrow and am going to put it in a 20 gallon glass enclosure for now. I'm thinking of just keeping moss in there to keep the humidity up until my other AP Plastics enclosure arrives. I was curious if there were more efficient humidifiers out there because my Tropicaire is continually running when the substrate dries out.

    On a side note, my custom hide project is on hold but I will definitely send some pics when it is finally finished.
    Good hearing from you again!
    Cheers!

    Don'tDon't use a screen lid, or at least cover it with something like!e foil or plastic, and you shouldn't need anything. And I just use ultrasonic humidifiers from either the hardware store or the pharmacy section.

    Where are we going, and why am I in this handbasket?

    Never argue with idiots. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with their experience.
