I had a wee bit of trouble adding onto this subject, which I will talk about elsewhere later.
Anyway, pics first then talk. :D

A close-up of the carnivores. Can you spot a runaway in the moss?

It's not much, pretty basic, but I'm really satisfied with it. :)
For lighting, I'm using a T8 "tropical reptile" light that seems to work fine.
As for the humidity and temp, I mist every other hour, and have a small heating pad underneath.

Nice! It looks really good! Is that water on the bottom? Be careful about that, it might become dirty or turn "bad". It looks like a perfect place for fungus to grow, so be careful . Change it every so often. I might be wrong though. Anyways great job !

Thanks! About the water, I figured it would be the perfect source of humidity. And you may be right, I didn't anticipate the water to get as 'bad' as it's getting...I may change it soon.
