hei everyone,
here in norway we have very dry air.
at the moment the weather is starting to cool back down so i have started using my heat mats again.
i only use them on the side walls of my set ups. but i have a new exo terra 30x30 set up for one of my big girls and the problem is i cant keep the humidity up. its always around 45.
its a 30x30 glass with a full mesh top.
i use a full 6 inches of coconut husk fibre floor, a good size water bowl and mist reguly.
i have tried sealing of half the mesh top but stil i can only get about 50--55 humidity.
where do you draw the line regarding sacrificing ventilation for humidity?
