How silly is this idea?
    #22079646 - 08/12/15 01:18 AM (8 years, 5 months ago)

I've had a fair amount of success employing the PF TEK using shotgun terrariums but I don't like the maintenance of keeping a stable relative humidity. I usually have to water the terrariums around 5 times per day to keep the RH above 80% (I aim for 90). I had this idea of planting a medical air humidifier (like for COPD patients) in the middle of the terrarium before pouring the hydrated perlite and simply setting it to the desired RH. My hope is that I can limit the need for opening the terrarium. Furthermore, I hypothesize that with an internal source expelling water vapor in a closed environment, the internal pressure will lead to improved ventilation.

What do you think? Worth a shot?

Where else would you put your humidifier apart from the side, but always thought people would dump there's inside the FC

I think you should make a monotub instead of wasting your money on a humidifier for a SGFC. Monotubs do all that without the extra crap. :thumbup:
