Inside the enclosure

 

[hdochow]

alright. you're ok anywhere from 12-15 inches if it's inside. I have a long grape vine that I have angled under mine so sir henry can choose how close he wants to be.

Last question just want to make sure I got everything right my humidity is 30-40 percent durning the day but at night it gets about 65 I thought about using a heat admitter to bring it down some

 

[hdochow]

don't worry about humidity too much. it is normal for it to go up at night when the lights aren't on. i wouldn't add heat at night to take care of it. they want it cool and dark to sleep. heat emitters only need to be used if your house is getting below about 65° at night.
