Humidity Happy

[boris'mommy]

Just wanted to share that I have officially created a closed chamber from a glass tank with a screen top. It's not beautiful, but it sure works beautifully [SMILING FACE WITH HEART-SHAPED EYES] he's up to an 80-82% humidity level 24/7 now, ranging in temperatures from 72-78 on the cool side and 85-95
Under the basking lamp.

How did you seal your top?

How did you seal your top?

I sealed the entire thing with plastic wrap and taped it on as tight as possible, cut holes out where the light fixtures go and made sure aluminum foil is covering any parts of plastic the light would be touching. Everyone's wisdom on here helped so much! The only issue now is that he can never bask under a light over around 88 degrees. So I'm thinking of adding a humidifier to the mix so I can start using his day time heat lamp again. (Which gets up to 110, I've been using the night time bulb to keep the enclosure from drying out to fast)
Any more helpful advice?

A humid tank should never go under 80 degrees
