Hey,
I figured I would turn to you guys for some help with these questions. I love terrariums, and have always wanted a miniature rain forest type of set up. I have had chameleons, other lizards, snakes, etc. in the past, so I'm aware of most of that info. But, I am doing some research on Mushrooms, in the natural state, compared to how they are produced for consumers. Unfortunately I need to have a realistic ecosystem, but in a controlled environment. Which made me think," hey I really should just build a nice terrarium in one of my old 30 gallon aquariums ". So, I have a few questions, The mushrooms need around 92-100% humidity.. which is going to be my biggest problem. I read a bunch of the posts on the forums, and read all of the mold posts at that. As long as i can keep the humidity around 95%, and have proper set up, I can achieve the proper data for the research project. Any ideas on how to control mold, if it does occur, or simply thoughts and ideas about this project. Thank you very much for your time and effort.
