I like your setups though, very creative, and I love the BP on top of the plants in the 2nd picture.

Also make sure you only have the moon bulbs on at night and not during the day. You can keep it on a dimmer if it starts to affect your humidity/temperature. That way you can dial it down and still have a nice little glow.
AHHHH i feel dumb now lol. I put them inside and they jumped right up to 61% lol. I also wasnt getting accurate temps, then I realized that I had way to much aspen in there, I removed some and put a second zoomed thermometer in and the temps leveled out. I also foil to the lid and black construction paper around the outside of the tank. Thanks so much for the help.
