[QUOTE="hysteresis, post: 329888, member: 11064"] [USER=11251]@Kerby[/USER], another thought. If your heat lamp is melting plastic, its too hot for your mantises. Surfaces directly under my 60W IR emitter can reach 110°F easily. So I back it off so it stays just under 100. My gongy goes in and out of that hot zone. Not pretty, but its effective. I lost a bleph from keeping her too dry. Im pretty sure youll want heat humidity AND ventilation for later molts. I have an exo terra nano tall and I dont think my one gongy would be happy in there, let alone more than one. How big is your exoterra? [/QUOTE]
