It took 2 years, but I'm giving up on trying to use a glass aquarium for Ginger. Instead, I've bought her a 48x23x23 Pro-Line PVC enclosure from Ed at NW Constructors. I'll be using a heat panel as her primary source of heat.
We had a big cold snap here in NJ over the weekend, and I spent hours running in to the library to check Ginny's temps and humidity. Also, we bought and moved in to an 1839 farmhouse in July, and I suspect that the heating may be a challenge...... The wood stove is in the library, so the room temp can rise, but I still have to check her all of the time.
Add wrestling with heat lamps and stands all of the time, buying tons of bulbs, etc.... and I give up. I'm now going to be a pest with lots of questions about our new enclosure, lol.
