Well after some thinking cooling down a tank and all that might be a little expensive and stuff..So i guess humidity tanks should work okay too..Not good but okay

Anyway, i'm not sure if i can even build a tank as my family isn't really keen on having plants (living things) in the house cos of the ants and bla bla stuff...

Another problem is about the water at the bottom of the tank.....It will also be and also ideal spot for mosquitos to breed....Definitly a no no.. So how do you guys which have tanks prevent mozzies from breeding in your tanks???

I talk to much but i'm not done
The tank would have to be enclosed right to maintain high humidity...So how are the neps gonna get air circulation and preventing fungus from killing them????

1 more thing...As for tanks...I wonder what should be a suitable size...And also how much do tanks averagely cost...Does'nt have to have curved sides...those are $$$$$ just plain old rectangle tanks..

Okay no replies but i have more Q haha...How bout the cover for the tank??? What should i use to cover it to maintain high humidity...

And also does leaving a small 1-2cm gap at the top of the tank make most of the humidity traped inside go away?? Does this defeat the main purpose of the humidity tank/terrarium
