    Is this tub setup OK?

    I did read Vyprz tub tutorial on how to setup a proper one, but just wanted to make sure it's not too small I saw that a lot of breeders and people who use tubs don't usually provide a cool side hide, and mine wouldn't fit, so I didn't put it in. But please let me know if you think I should switch out the water bowl for a smaller one and place a cool hide in!
    The quality is terrible, my phone and my camera hate me



    Do you guys also think there are enough air holes? I soldered some holes into the front of the tub only:

    Looks good! I drill holes ALL the way around my tubs and even cut out the tops and place screens for even air flow.

    Looks fine to me. Maybe solder a few holes on the side?


    If the humidity is too high, then you can switch out the water bowl to a smaller one or add more air holes.

    Looks good. I put some holes in the lid as well for air flow.

    Ok, looks good though I would make the substrate layer a little thinner.
