    Its a work in progress. Lately I've been trying out the "tropic aire" humidifier that you see to the left of the rheostat. Basically its a sponge mounted in a bottle nearly full of water. Air gets pumped into one side of the sponge and builds up pressure that sends humid air out a tube into the tank. It's not a fogger and won't act like one but with a large sized aquarium air pump it seems to keep constant 50 to 65% humidity in the tank. But that's only after doing the tinfoil treatment to the screen top. It has no effect on humidity with that screen top uncovered. Sorry for the bad spice job, I tried to get three pictures to seamlessly mesh together and only partially succeeded

    I've lined the log hide with several pieces of cardboard which has brought the size down to where she will actually use it. You can't tell from this shot but its as small now as the cold-side hide to the right.

    Next I plan on getting that cork bark tile for the left & right sides of the tank to help insulate it a bit better and make it look nice and get some fake vines to hide the humidifier tubing. Amazingly she hasn't ripped those suction cups off yet.
