Well the other setup failed so i decided to build a new stealth box with a lock. itss one of those strong boxes for tols and stuff. it can hold up tp 400 pounds and can be locked in numerous places.
i put the blue lights on the lid with a timer set for 6 hour intervals. and added a bubble stone in a container of water for humidity. that stays on for 24 hours.
does this seem like a good stup? with the bubble stone and all?

yea that looks like it would work, its pretty much a pmp but with the airstone in a cup. If your perlite is deeper, i would put it under the perlite

yes you'll need to fan it for it to be fully automated your going to need to put holes near the bottom of the terrarium and stuff them with polyfill this is because c02 is heavier than oxygen, so even with the oxygen being pumped in, it escapes at the top, trapping the c02 at the bottom

So if i drilled 1 inch holes in it, i wouldnt have to fan? like say 4 holes in the back of the container about 1 inch above the perlite?!

That's a neat setup. How big is the box, and where'd you get it?

Anything I post is purely theoretical, and not based in reality. All pictures are from google. A big part of me has died inside and I don't know if it will ever come back. Nothing makes me happy anymore. I use drugs and alcohol to numb the pain, and my sense of humor to hide the rest. I don't share these feelings with anyone in real life.

you'll want to stuff them with polyfill
but yes, that should provide the proper FAE assuming that there's not too much oxygen getting out of the top you need a tight sealing lid so that the oxygen will push the carbon out of your filtered holes
