It's a walk in closet 8x8. Problem is it's on the east side of the house so in the daytime it gets up to about 88 deg. During the winter I had excelent results with my setup, now all I've been getting is lots of aborts and a muchroom every now and then.

i keep gallons of water in the freezer, so when i leave during the night (it gets hotter at night because i have to shut the door) i place the frozen gallons of water around the place and it keeps it cool
for awhile

about 15 years ago I worked for a wholesale floral company, when we recieved shipments of roses from colombia they were packed with the plastic freeze packs they typicaly cost about $1.50 each in stores but because we always recieved about 80 per shipment we tossed them... most larger cities have a floral company like this, call them and aske if you can have a few, or just dig through their dumpster....
freeze and use a small fan or just set them around and on top of your terrarium, another thing, if you are keeping the closet door closed, you may want to look into ventilation, a small pvc pipe running from the AC ducting to the closet, keep the AC at 75 and you could do quite well....

I just use darkroom ventilation fans that I bought on Ebay. One brings air in and the other pushes air out. Each is attached to a hepa filter. They have adjustible speeds and can keep the temps around 80 degrees even in an un-airconditioned room in Florida.
