ok.... got a slight problem. not completely important... but it will be.
i got a a. versi a couple of weeks ago. i wanted to get a juvi, so got a tank it could live in and grow into... so got that all sorted. but in the end couldnt get a juvi and got a sling instead. so i bought a small container to put it in. then put that container inside its (evntually) bigger home. so hes double enclosed if you like. everything was going ok until i noticed mould in the "big" tank the other day. inside his smaller container its all fine. substrate is damp, and its humid and hot enough. the bigger tank tho looses moisture quite quick. humidity is a under recomended, but not by loads. there seems to be quite a lot of air vents in the top of the big tank... so what i want to know is....
would i be getting mould because im wetting the subsrate quite often due to it losing moisture fast in the big tank?
ive thought of blocking up most of the vents in the top ( say about 3/4 of them) but not sure what with.....
obviouslt the mould needs to be sorted too... so ill prob just redo the sub.
ummm.... swear there was one last thing...duno... just a reminder that the versi's house container is fine. no probs there... its just his future home. but i want to get it ready soi know it works for when he moves in. (basically this is a test if u like as i wasnt sure how this bigger house would work)
cheers for all the help. sorry about the humongous amount of text.
