I guess you didn't like my response on the other thread, lol.
(j/k, obviously) Hopefully this will get your question some new traffic. Sometimes it IS best to start anew vs tacking on to one that is 6 months old. My response there still stands...except the last question I asked - I found the answer to that in your previous post of 4/3/06 (sorry).

My response (to give people something to build on or tear down) was:

I have had the best luck maintaining emeralds at a constant temp of 84, but there are a number of factors to consider: Humidity is huge. Temperature ranges - this can be in an issue with arboreal setups...and it sometimes takes a bit of work to get things right. I would shoot for more consistency, and less of a variance...say 82 at the coolest spot, to no more than 87-88 at the warmest.
To clarify a few points - insufficient humidity CAN be the cause of regurgs (do you know what the humidity level is in your cage?), as can improper temps. I would also attempt to lose the night drop.
