fake?? you know how hard it was for me to get my bp to stop killin the seedlings LOL

Zoomed is actually offering one called "cannabis".

Does everyone agree that the small corners around the CHE aren't enough air circulation?

Personally I see no problem with this but I also don't have a set up anywhere like this. They don't need much air circulation so if the holes around the dome are giving it some I don't see a problem. Someone more experienced with glass tanks should defiantly chime in.

My plants look like cannabis leaves. I thought it was funny so they're in my JCP cage. :P

lol....

with some cypress mulch, and the moss with a little daily misting you can attain 55-65% humidity easily, i dont even use moss and with bi-daily fogging for 20-30 minutes i can hold 60% in a 20 long with 2/3 of the tank covered with books

yep yep :psychotic: :shh: :rofl:

nice looking cage :)

That little dial thing, is that a thermostat? if so, what brand/kind is it? I've never seen one like that.

its a zilla thermostat. it like $50. works so far. the only thing i dont like about it, is that it turns off the uth when it reaches the set temp. so the tems fluctuate a little. other that that is good.

Humidity can be an evil thing. I have used giant bowls of sphagnum moss, humidifiers, spraying, all of course with keeping the top of my tanks 75 % sealed. I understand how much it can suck but you do need a little air circulation so just uncover the spot behind the lamp (about 3 inches by 3 inches looks about the space you have there).

I use a clean damp cloth changed daily on the top of the tank and I find that works best. Mind you the humidity in my apartment is about 25% (cough, cough) and my tank is 3 feet long so it depends on each individual set up.

Yah the only way to get away from that is to purchase a proportional thermostat like a herpstat but the price goes up sadly. An on/off thermostat still does a decent job though. ;)

i have a glass 10 gallon... and found the easiest way to keep humidty up is to use somekinda mulch - cypress of coconut fibers - and cover the entire screen lid with saran wrap - plastic wrap- ... by cutting one hole in the wrap over the hot end and a bigger one it the cool end ... hot air will build up n flow out the hole creating air flow ... start with a relativly small hole - on the cool end - and go bigger to adjust the humidty. leave the hole on the hot smaller .... works for me and it keeps up the humidity at a constant 60%
