temp and humidity
 
In their natural habitat intermediate and H/L neps required huge different in their temp and humidity during day and night. Another factor was the moving air current (?). Any comment of the later.

This was taken early morning. The gadget was left in the open to record the readings. Note the mist which was common in the late evening till dawn..

in an enclosed terrarium fed with cold air from air-cond, and if fine misting on the plants and environment, will push the humidity up.
