Oh OK that's make a lot of sense, I think it was that brand actually. Here's a photo of my tub right now, do you think my sub is potentially getting too dry? I still see condensation on the lid, but the walls have dried up a good deal. I still see spots of glistening water droplets on the surface, but since I dried up the perimeter, I can tell it's just drier. Should I potentially mist?

Looks pretty good to me as is, if the beads of moisture completely evaporate in some spots and not others mist the dry spots only. But be careful it's easy to over mist, use a flashlight or lamp to help see the very fine glistening beads.  Don't pay much mind to condensation, it just shows a temp difference between the inside and outside.

Nice, I appreciate it. Do you have an estimate on when pins may form? This is day 14 after spawning.

Hard to say, shouldn't be long. When you start seeing very tiny white balls covering the surface (knots) it's about to pin.

OK cool. I misted not long after previous post (only 4 times with very fine droplets, in each corner). Here's a birds-eye view with flash, so the droplets are more visible. Good stuff?

Quick question about the "open up the top poly". Did you mean to take the poly out completely and have the holes open?

You can take it all the way out but i meant just pretty lose poly either way you will have to keep an eye on the surface it dries up alot quicker

OK cool. I see exactly what you mean now, because the corners started to evaporate afterwards. I gave another light misting and tightened it up a little bit.

I've heard how evaporation on the sub surface is a pinning trigger, so is it potentially a good thing to have to mist a few times a day? Or could it possibly be risky as far as introducing contams? Thanks for the tips. -Tim

Well it should bead on its own i notice with mine i have to mist once or twice then it keeps the beads for a few days but ya evaporation is the main pinning trigger which is why if you dont use a liner you get more side pins ... that pic is really what you want i wouldnt over mist causing pools but if you could keep it how it looks thats what you want
