Air exchange
    #2134343 - 11/25/03 07:05 AM (20 years, 4 months ago)

well,...my terrarium i have got set up right now...is a styrofoam cooler about 3 feet long by 18 inches wide...by about 18 inches deep..i cut a hole in the lid to put some plexi glass..cut to the size of the hole..i then put some silicone around the lid to seal it.. i then got another piece of plexi glass cut to the inside measurement of the terrarium to fit as a drip shield... i put some plastic right angle tubing to connect a cool mist upto the terrarium..i havent got the cool mist yet..

my problem is..since i am gone at work for 12 hours at a time...im wondering if my casing is getting enough air exchange....i fan it before i go to work and when i get home.. do you guys think i need to get that cool mist to support the environment,...or i should just continue to fan twice a day....

thanks for all the help!

Fanning twice a day should be fine -- I only fan and mist once a day.

Yeah -- those are aborts. Looks like it's knotting up, though. Just keep fanning/misting and see what happens. Keep an update!
