 fan for terrarium?

Sorry for posting so many questions but I figured I would get as much questions that I couldn't get answered from the FAQs and forums before my spores came.
Well I'v been reading on the forums and FAQs that fresh air is good for the growing mushies... I was thinking of putting a fan in the terrarium for constant air movement. Is this a good idea or would this defeat the purpose of humidity and heat needed to grow the shrooms?

good idea but bad in theory as more fanning that means u dryout the chamber. thats why people use air stones and air pumps and make bubblers

Here is a good way to make a terrarium. It works very well for me. Get a 10 gal fish tank, clear lid for tank, silicone air tubing, air pump, long bubbler stone (enough to take up the length of the tank), and a small bag of hydro-korals. The hydro-korals can be found at any hydraponics store. Now clean you tank and hydra-korals however you feel is necessary. I use 10% bleach solution in tank and a H2O2 solution on korals. Now attch bubler stone to air pump using air tube. Place bubler stone in the bottom of tank. Pour korals over stone. Then pour in a H2O2+ H2O solution until it is about 1/4" or so from the top of the korals. turn your air pump on. It is good to have an adjustable one so that you can control humidity and CO2 levels. Put your lid on top and you are set. Make sure that there is some ventelation through the lid. There should be since the hose will be going between the lid and the aquarium.

FAQ and search forums for setups. the air bubbler system is really simple. air pump some tubing and air stone submerged in h2o2/h2o solution and set on a timer to bubble at certain times of the day. keep the air pump in a polyfill'd box or such to keepout contams and leave a hole in the bottom of the fruiting chamber so the o2 will force the co2 out the bottom since co2 is heavier.

Oh every so often you need to add more water, but I am sure you could figure that out.

you could also set the fan on a timer. i have mine set for every 45 min for 15 min. with a constant humid, fresh air flow. it works good for me....

The above is just an illusion.
