    Default Humidity Issue

    So I am having a hard time keeping humidity above 70-75. I plan on buying a reptifogger. In the mean time Will misting and keeping a dish of water in habitat be okay? I also have moistened the substrate.

    What type of frogs are you keeping and what type of lid/top do you have?

    Yes you can mist a put a water dish in there, these are things that should be being done daily anyways. And what do you mean you moistened the substrate. Did you have it in there like almost dry?

    I am keeping a Pacman Frog. And when I opened up the substrate it was dry so I put it in tank and added water and mixed it all up so it is moist but not soupy. Its more soggy. The top is just a screen top. Using a red heating light and I put aluminum foil over the screen top to try and hold in moisture but it isn't working very well.

    I wouldn't keep it to wet, you just kinda want it to clump in your hand but not have water comeing out. And unfortunately with bulbs that is one of the down falls, it dries up your tank fast. But ya just keep doing what your doing till you get a fogger and it should be fine. And I don't how you setup the tinfoil on the top but if you cover whole top, cut about a inch out from each side and put your dome on the tin and trace a hole around it and then cut that out and then put your light there it seems to hold for abit longer. This is how I have my baby pacman setup.

    Mist frequently, make sure the dirt is staying moist but not wet. Keep most of the top covered, make sure you are using a digital gauge, the dial ones are very inaccurate. Lastly, get the reptifogger, they work amazingly.

    Do you use the Reptifogger Thevacant face? Im just asking cause I have heard different reviews about them, and I don't mind misting but if these work good I would rather have one of these?
