Re: Heat/humidity..

In newly set up tanks, humidity can fluctuate until everything has stabilised. So you may find after the next couple of weeks, it will mellow down again. Regardless, high humidity is usually fine and at most will likely encourage mould growth. If you ever have rather stable humidity (80-85%) and th...

Re: Fair Crab!

I appreciate everyone on here! A wonderful lady is going to sell me some good food and a tank quite cheap and she only lives one city over! Where is the cheapest place to buy coco bricks and play sand this time of year (beginning of summer where I live)
