Container in Perlite Terrarium ?
    #1244389 - 01/23/03 08:59 PM (21 years, 29 days ago)

I'm planning on putting my cased container [tin box] into a big clear box containing perlite @ the bottom.

Anyone with ideas on how to elevate the containers so it doesn't touch the perlite?

would mesh wire be the most ideal solution? I would thinik it would either bend.


any ideas and/or help would be greatly appreciated! :smile:



ps :: i'm also wondering, how would i go about to sterilize a syringe [w/out the needle] when I use it? and also, should I sterilize the tin box [that i'm using to put the substrate/case in] ? If i should, how do I do this?


thanks! :smile:

the casing container can touch the perlite.

I'm with Shirley on this.. I always sit my casing containers directly on the perlite.. any reason you don't want the two to touch?

its ok for the casing container to touch the perlite, but putting wire mesh would be ok too
you don't need to sterilize the box with the casing, just wash it with some soap and h20

i heard it should be elevated to increase the surface area of the perlite for better humidity ..... ??
