[QUOTE="Ed Zeppelin, post: 128813, member: 27778"] [FONT=Georgia][SIZE=4]Hi everyone, [/SIZE] I have a small female Pink Toe living in a 10-gallon terrarium. I'm looking for advice on making it warmer and more humid. The best I can do is about 68-70 degrees and about 60 percent humidity. Would placing a warm-mist humidifier near the tank help? Right now I have a cool-mist humidifier that I already had been using in the house and put that near the tank. It helps somewhat with the humidity but not the heat. I also have a spray bottle that I use occasionally to mist the tank. A buddy of mine gave me a small heat pad that I stuck on the back glass after trying it underneath the tank but it doesn't seem to help much. I have about two inches of coco fiber substrate and was wondering if sticking a higher wattage pad to the tank bottom would work in conjunction with the coco fiber. Thanx for any help.
