Hey Everyone,
Just wanted to share my new way I'm going to try to keep humidity up in my tubs. I was trying to brainstorm something that holds water for a little while, but also was more than just my water bowl. I was browsing online and found these "sponge holders", I was kinda figuring that they could attach to the side of the tub and would hold wet sponges to keep humidity up.
I live in Denver so it is very dry out here and my humidity is steady with the water bowl at about 30-35%. Way to low. So I bought some sponges, sponge holders and here is what it looks like.... Let me know what you think.
Here is the set up of how I put the sponge holders. One on the cool side, one on the warm side. Also, you will notice that I put two sponges in each one, only because one sponge was really loose, and the two get wedged in there so they wont fall out.
Next is the before humidity at 29%!!!
And here is the humidity just about 25 minutes after putting them in.
I will be keeping an eye on this because it might be to many sponges, and maybe I'll get rid of one of the holders. Hopefully this was useful, and if you have any comments or concerns please let me know.
I did have one question if the sponges are safe for the snake, I dont see why they wouldn't but if you have any input that would be great.
PS - i got the idea from thinking of my cigar humidor, there is a small little distilled water holder for the humidors and it gave me the idea.
Thanks for looking!

PSS - the sponge holder were $1.98 and the 6 pack of sponges were 2.98. Pretty cheap setup, all from walmart.
