 Lid

You guys have been a great help and I was wondering about the lid. I know you need plexi-glass or glass but do you put holes in them. Wouldn’t that let out the humidity? Just curious. I am saving up my money and have a checklist. That’s on there. Right now I have a screen lid (It was my frogs) I still need to clean the cage and stuff as well.

I use a Aquarium lid and it keeps the humidity great I just put a screen lid under it so they do not get out.

But do you need to put air holes in them?

The lids dont fit that air tight. Add a airstone to your fresh water pool and that helps alot keeping the air from getting stale. But no you dont need to add holes :)
