    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I'm looking for suggestions on what herp, if any, to put in my planted 18x18x24 terrarium. I can vary temps and humidity a little of course, but at the moment humidity is kept high to keep leaves from cooking under an intense LED panel. I'm using the LED because it's cost-effective and encourages dense growth over height, which is ideal for my smaller tank. I'm wondering if I would be able to keep any herp under these specific conditions, or if I would need to find lower temps and/or adjust humidity— which means reconfiguring my lighting setup before Spring. Ideally I would like to avoid UV supplementing, but it's possible.

Specs:
Hot tropical biome (monsoon/equatorial)
Temps are 80-84F day and 74-78F at time of sunrise
Humidity is stable constant 80%
No UV

Current species:
Shefflera Umbrella
Plumosa Asparagus Fern
Isopods
Mycelium + lichens
Soil microbes

Potential future species:
Japanese Toad Lily
Lily Magnolia
Banana Croton
Hairy Cushion Moss


Thanks for any help.
