Re: Deal popped up!
Beautiful! I hope you have more luck with this one, but by the look of it that won't be an issue

Yeah, looks soooo much better! Much larger than the other! Loving the markings as well! I don't even care what adult colors he ends up with, I just love the species, period...so beautiful!

Re: Deal popped up!
here is what i have set up for the new "Absolem"...19x12x12, 40w RHP, themostat set at 85f, temps gradient from 86 to 75, humidty at 85% and climbing slowly (air stone in a water dish) a 2nd water dish for drinking that is shallow but bigger surface area, lots of cover, ladder style perches for his choosing...anything i am missing? oh, there is another plant at the very top of the ladder, but the suction cup keeps falling off, may have to hot glue it or something...

Setup looks really good. Really like the diagonal climbing spaceOnly thing I would change is the humidity. GTP's don't need constantly high humidity. Maybe a humidity spike in the morning but I usually keep mine around 60-70% without issues.
I'm not saying high humidity is going to hurt your animal but bacteria/fungi will grow faster at those levels.

To be honest I don't even think you will need an air stone lol. Tubs/plastic caging are very good at maintaining humidity.
I haven't misted my tubs for a few weeks now... the humidity is at a constant 60%. Just from a small water bowl in the corner.

Re: Deal popped up!
i set it up for the air stone mostly because once warmer weather breaks, we go camping quite a bit...i would like the setup there so that i don't have to worry about misting if we are gone for 2 or 3 days....

I'm Don. But definitely message him. I'd imagine he does have more, but they're not nearly as good at replying to comments. GBBs usually retail for around $40 at that size.

Yeah I was going to say I know where you can find them at good prices, but with shipping it makes much more sense to get one with your current order lol.

Re: Deal popped up!
exactly...i'm sure i could get one at the expo next weekend, but not sure if we are going or not...it will be a "morning of" decision, due to weather, etc, since it is a very long drive...hate to pass on the opportunity...

Re: Deal popped up!
Thanks! without using the air stone the humidity is holding about 57% with no misting. So humidity shouldn't be hard to attain.
