Hello, I just got my first AFS a couple of days go and I have a couple questions.
Humidity:
I don't have anything for the humidity as I've read that most humidity gauges are unreliable. I've misted the enclosure a couple times a day for about 2 days to get the humidity upSo, how do I know if there is the right humidity by look and feel?
Heating:
If I were to get a ceramic heat emitter, what wattage would I need for a 10 gallon? I'm trying to get it in the low to mid 80s on the warm side. I have a heat pad on the side but it seems to not go above 75-77F on that side, even with 3/4s of the lid covered with foil and a folded towel on top the screen. Also, what is an ideal temp for the cool side and will a ceramic heat emitter dry it out too much?
