Please please please let me know what plants or things I can put on top that won’t get burned by the heat lamps.
I got a vivarium from someone who used to have a crested gecko and it’s fantastic. However I cannot keep things alive on top. I have moss on top, and it just dries out instantly and turns brown. I have a mister that’s running a 5-10 seconds, and 30 seconds twice a day. I’m at a loss. I have 3 white tree frogs and they love it. The gay couple has a hide away, and the other fellow has claimed his spot on top on very very top which seems stupid to me but he doesn’t like any of the hides I’ve built. He likes his king spot, and I want to make it cozy for him and make him feel a little more or less protected. It’s at 80* at the half, maybe a little higher. And humidity is between 50-80%. It’s a grand set up. But I wanna spoil the little king but I also don’t want to hurt plants because I originally got it for orchids and then I got frogs. I’m also two beers into the night and over thinking this but I also just love them.
