Humidity Problems

Here is what I did for my top. No humidity problems, usually gets too humid so I stick a little rubber stopper in there to increase air flow and its just right. 50-60%. Take the stopper out at shed time and bumps to 60-70%. And that is with 2 heat lamps.

Is that just plywood?

One last question guys, my little guy has bamboo tubes (big enough to curl up in) for hides right now. These won't work with moss, I picked some up and also got some of those cheap black plastic planting pots. My concern is they smell heavily of plastic. Are they safe to use temporarily? Should I put the humid hide on the warm side? Or one humid and one not humid on the warm side?

Thanks for all your help guys.

I wouldn't be overly worried about the smell, keep an eye on him, if the smell bothers him he will stay away from it.

I would put the humid hide either in the middle or on the cool side.

Hides are in, it appears he wants nothing to do with them :(

Scratch that, apparently on top of the hide is his new favorite place...

Tub FTW! Lol :P

Forreal though if you can't fix your humidity issue with the tank, tubs hold humidity EXTREMELY well.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^True story above, I switched to tubs and haven't had any humidity problems thus far. :gj:

Strongly considering a tub.

He finished his parkour session, took a poop and retired to a new hide.

Are you talking about my picture? Thats a piece of plastic with holes drilled in it. Way cheaper and easier to work with than acryllic. 6 bucks for a big sheet at Lowes.
