For the longest time Dot had her humid hide upside down. She did that herself too I put it back right side up and well....not a good idea from what happened. Usually i have them top up but your suggestion i will follow from now on.



Thankyou very much. Sometimes the easiest solutions slip my mind hehehe

>>Do you put the containers right side up or upside down? Containers with tapered sides are unstable almost always (depends on the taper and height of the container) in their right side up position, if you put them upside down however (so the lid is on the floor of the tank), they will be much more stable since there's no pivot point for a moment (uhh... torque? not quite sure what the layman's term is, this is what mechanical engineering does to you) to act on.
