My glass slides o.k. it`s almost 4feet tall... (On the plastic, if it seems to stick, a tiny bit of oil helps a lot, or even rub with candle wax).

If the temps drop/rise it`s bound to effect the humidity level somewhat, but then again, a small fan of course wouldn`t have too great an effect, and running on a very slow speed. It`s worth a try, I think... ?

Well I thought in a higher enclosure it would help disperse some of the heat, pushing it down from the top.

Yes, it would disperse the heat making the hot-spot cooler, it`s no different to a cool breeze,.. are you trying to just get some air circulating, because I don`t quite understand the gap between the glass being THAT much of a problem? Is there something that`s bothering you about the enclosure...temps, humidity?

I was just wondering if anyone used the fans and their results. Possibility that I would put a few at top to push some heat down further for ambient temps.
It was just a general question in the line of "What makes a quality enclosure" topic.

Oh, I thought you were having problems! It`s still worth getting a small fan and trying it out, someone has to be the first, Michael, I think it`s quite a good idea!

This is my outdoor enclosure I just finished it this afternoon












This evening I finished putting all the dirt,leaves and logs.Just thought I would add it to the enclosure discucion

Don't laugh to hard I'm not that handy

greg

not bad - I'd have an outdoor one if I had an outdoor place to put it - the drawback to apartment living is NO YARD!, Lol.

What did you use for the mesh?

Nice work, Greg! The only thing that matters is it allows access to natural sunlight, and is safe for the animals and the keeper and family etc., looks aren`t important! ( Nothing wrong with the way it looks, anyway!)

you may have seen these pics of my bosc enclosure before...









hide stuffed with substrate... a good idea for diggers like boscs....


he's now in a different enclosure, which is off the ground, he was getting quite stressed down there on the floor! I've also changed to orchid bark instead of the coco husk in the pics. I managed to get a huge bag really cheap and I find it works well. it's not exactly burrowable, but a small bosc like mine can bury himself under it.

Greg, I didn't know you were so young.lol
I wish I had the environment for an outdoor habitat.

Myo, you'd better be planning on the larger habitat soon. Looks like that one should hold moisture pretty good.
