(Coffee can lid,)  just a dry spot for her. seemed to work for her while things dried out, I keep holes below the sub level for extra ventilation now, and make very sure none of the fiber from substrate is touching her dish enough to cause a problem.And its natural to be thinking one more when you get here,  You caught the fever!they need to post a warning about T fever...it seems quite contagious!</blockquote>
