I keep my apartment pretty chilly, around mid 50s-mid 60s. I'm picking up some land crabs and need to heat a 20 gal long tank for them, I would like to be able to heat the whole tank without too much work.
On all of my fish tanks I have heaters where you can set the temp and it keeps the tank regulated itself..auto shuts off. I'm looking for something with the same concept, but for a terrarium.
On a side note, I seen a "mist" thing that you just put into a water dish at my local pet shop..Is that a good way of keeping humidity up?

But anyways you wont need it because the heat from the pad and the humity from both the substrate and the water conteinar will keep the cage constantly moist. Zoomed heat pads are great and you can set them with a termostat, see how the temps go for 24 hours and chuse the temp you want
