ultrasonic humidifier is a good idea if your having a hard time maintaining humidity, but its not good for a confined space as the water vapor doesnt get a chance to break down out of its cloud form and may cause RI. i often recomend coconut husk and internal lights (inside the enclosure) many fear from the internal lights as they fear burns may occure from contact, but if you place them in areas with nothing around it it wont be an issue. check out my post about my collection you'll see my pictures.


as far as humidity goes i use coconut husk. internal lights, cork bark, and cork panneling(sheets) on the walls of the enclosure to maintain 65-85 threwought the day. i also minimized the screen vent area . u can do so by means of plastic wrap or foil. i used plexi glass.
