That's why I want to stick with exo terra it's a sealed unit.

Ok I was looking at the large exo terra for when hes older now I know this will be to small, I like them more than a mesh cage. humidity is not a problem in the exo terra I'm using so I'd rather stick to what I know

I said to him I was going to buy that tank for it and he said yea itll be fine I didnt purchase from him directly I bought the full set up 2nd hand

Mines 60 wide 45 deep and 90 high, the guy in the shop said it would be fine for when it's a adult so that's why I got it.

Ok I was thinking of a 6500k t5 itll be 2ft long the ones at the bottom are growing well with the 2 tubes that's in the hood

That is in the room

My ambient humidity is about 55%, I'm in one of the wettest parts of the uk the humidity at night goes to about 75-80 inside the tank. I'm ok for it evaporating at 3 hour intervals any smaller amount of time and it doesn't evaporate, I'm adding a new hood so I'll have 2 35w basking bulbs instead...

Thank you for your help very informative, I will probably be bugging you with more questions soon if you dont mind.

Good idea with the cap method, I mist for 30 seconds every three hours with the last misting at 7PM, it spikes to about 85-90% then drops to 40-45% in basking spot, and any where between 55-65% mid tank so that's about 4 mistings a day with it having a good dry out inbetween.

Ok

Also I got a 80w komodo basking bulb with uvb, could I have one 5.0 or 10.0 uvb bulb in the hood and one plant bulb there aswell or will both need to be 5.0uvb sorry for the 20 questions.

I would rather something on the bottom so if he does fall hell have something other than glass to bounce off that's another reason I wanted to go bio active

Ok I wasnt planning on much leaf litter just moss, but if that's what they need they need, what leaf litter can you use any or has it got to come from a non herbicide insecticide area, and how many of them would you put in in a 90x60x45 terranium

So is there any special type of conditions the springtails and isopods need to survive

Right so no heat mat thank you, I was thinking of going bio as I wouldn't need to drain the water out as much as I'll have 5 live plants in there and it looks better than artificial grass

And for the media could I just use coco or does it need to be a certain brand I'm in uk

Thank you,I was thinking it would be ok as the guy I bought it off give me the media with spring tails in,but the reptile shop said not to do it as the cham is to young

Or do I leave it like this while hes small then plant it when hes older it put a heat mat under the glass to evaporate some of the water from the back of the viv

Havent got the cham yet hes in the shop as hes to small. I got a exo terra 24x18x36 inch terranium with a mesh top, I got a exo terra monsoon solo running 30 seconds every 3 hours, the last sprays at 7 o'clock, I got live plants but the shop says not to plant it up i was thinking 1-2 inch of...
