Well some substrate-less incubation methods are different. Using an aquarium heater it depends on the number of gallons of water and the wattage of your heater. To get 89 degrees you will need a higher watt heater.

Some people just put water in a tub and float a lid inside with the eggs on top of it sitting on paper towels. Of course the lid fits snugly so it doesnt tip, then they put the cover on the tub and set the tub in the incubator.

I think I will just stick with the vermiculite and perilite mixture.
