Need help for redesign my FC
    #5418764 - 03/19/06 01:11 PM (17 years, 10 months ago)

Hi!

I have a noob design FC.

It has an aquarium heater in the bottom of water. It produces a huge amount of humidity and perfect temperature but after a few days(3)it smells like garbage and everything in the FC has a thin "gummy" layer. I guess it's some kind of a bactaria. Should I use this kind of setup? Incubator
or just replace the water and clean it regularly with Lisol?

You're right(fourth contamined flush) but what should I use then?The temperature is very low in my room( about 62 ?F)and I also used it for incubation.

Hi Morden,  My room is cold too, what I do is use a REPTILE heating pad.  I place the heat pad on the floor, put a towel over it and then just place a tub on top of the towel.  Just mist the inside of the tub and the heater will keep the humidity well.

That's what I've been doing anyway and it works fine, I imagine you could find a small heating pad much much cheaper than aquarium heater, too.

Good luck!  :shineon:

You know, I've never measured the temp, it's just worked out well for me so far. The room is pretty cold, and I think the pad only gets to ~80 degrees, could be more though, so I'm thinking it just falls into a good temp range inside the tub. I'll stick a thermometer in the tub and post back later.
