terrarium growing with no fans, can this be done

[Discus]

nenella - what are your humidity readings like? Do you have max/min readings on it, or only ambient (if so, do you remember what the highest and lowest readings have been?).

I assume the terrarium is an exoterra model or something like that?

I bought a small reptile analogue humidity meter and it's utterly hopeless - doesn't even work properly. Perhaps it was part of a bad batch, but the needle hardly moves and the reading is nowhere near the readings on my digital temp/humidity sensor, nor on my humidistat-controlled ultrasonic mist-maker.

Hi I know that the highest I get is 99% (just after having watered all mounts as well as poured a couple litres of water to the bottom where the pebbles are)and the lowest I have had is under 50% where I hadn't added water for weeks) Now I add water every 2/3 weeks and I'd say the average humidity I get is about 75%.
I have just looked one case is at 98% the other 77%. The last time I added water was 2 weeks ago.
Temperature wise I've just looked ;today highest has been 20.2°C and lowest 19.8°C. A couple weeks ago when we had the big freeze in Europe I remember temp reading 17°C! - I have digital meters
Oh and yes you are spot on they are both exoterra!
