i just put deposit down on gtp, this will be my second one. in my research i have found that unlike bloods(which i have kept for several over the years) gtp's do need cvonstant high humidity, instead they need cycle of humidity followed by a drying out period. and where your blood will, for lack of a better term, wallow in sphagnum soaked or cypress soaked, a gtp will need a drying out period to be healthy. most seem to want it to get 85-95% humidity during the day drying out to 50ish at night.

oh and greg maxwells more complete condro and read up on hiswebsite fantastic stuff.

good luck
