Here is what I have created for Shrimp. The bottom is a sandbox that he came with. It is 32x45 inches. The top is what I made- with wooden dowels, duct tape, shower curtains, hot glue, and 2 zippers. The whole thing can be lifted off, and the front panel opens with the 2 zippers.
It holdsthe humidity really well. I finally got the daytime temperatures decent- he isn't being cooked and he isn't too cold. But over night it got down to 75 degrees in there- it is supposed to stay at least 80, right? And as it cools down heading into the fall it will drop down even lower than that (at night- we will still be running the AC during the day for a long time ). We hardly ever run the heater- we just add socks and sweatshirts when it gets cold! So, I need to invest in a CHE with a control to shut it off when it goes above 80 from the daytime lighting. Right? I see plenty of CHE'S at the pet stores, but not ones with controls to set a temp. I am assuming that is an add-on. Where do I buy that? Is it an actual pet product- or am I shopping at home improvement stores again? Could someone recommend a good product for this?
And I had to include that last picture of shrimp- he hasn't been to sure about the new additions to his home.
