Thanks for the tips David and Edmund. I do have a small computer fan but I'm using it for my planted tank at the moment. I will get another one soon when I upgrade the tank to a bigger one, since this terrarium is designed for retaining humidity for fauna and I realise the dimensions are too small for the fan to blow without being sidetracked into the terrarium (small area does cause considerable moisture loss, my sundews lost their dewyness after only a couple of hours)
