humidity

gutloader Jan 05, 2004 09:27 AM

i have a young male jacksons in a 65 gallon screen enclosure...i cut a piece of styrofoam ceiling tile to act as the cage floor....i have a enclosed waterfall and mist the cage twice a day but can't get the humidity above 45-50%...the waterfall has an option for a fogger, would that help or will the fog just pour out the screening and do nothing??...should i just buy a room humidifier???...thanks

I have the fogger that you're talking about. It tends to just pour the fog out the sides and down. Might try putting the fogger by itself on top of the cage. But they do tend to splash a lot. What I do when the humidity is really low is drap a towel, sheet, or blanket around the cage and then mist it till it's throughly wet. I use a pillowcase cut open. It raises the humidity by about 35%. Hope that helps!
