And how easy does this cage hold humidity?

Thanks Any Info on this will help me lots!!

It is pretty easy to put together, just take your time and follow the directions. I have a larger T-10, with the belly heat and a CHE on the cool side and the temps are usually perfect. Humidity is usually not too much of an issue, but I am having problems during the winter because the house is so dry from the heat being on. I still have to spray the cage down everyday but it is nowhere near as bad as when I used an aquarium. You should have better luck with the smaller T-5 as well since there is less space to heat and keep humid. Good luck, you will love it. If you need help or have questions, I'll be happy to help.
BTW, this should probably go in the Caging Forum, and if you do a search there for Animal Plastics, there should be several threads that will help you out.
