Dang! we just went to walmart this weekend looking for cyprus mulch, and all they had was the blend. I guess we will have to continue our search...

I love using paper towels. As for humidity; I make my tubs hold humidity by taping up the air holes during shed times. When I used tanks, I sealed most of their screened lid with plastic wrap. I could have used sand as substrate, and still had humidity! (not that I would have...)
