    It's called the "substrateless" method.

    I went to it and it's too easy, no more eggs in substrate for me...

    They are light diffusers from florescent lights. You can get them from some hardware stores. If you are having low humidity problems, did you cover your egg tubs with press n seal? That is what helps keep my humidity up. Hope that helps.
