may cause humidity issues, as a waterfall will raise the humidity |

Thats what i was worried about if it goes on the cool side near a vent you think it would make alot of difference then a large water bowl? |

As well as increasing the humidity they harbour germs because it's the same stale water going round and round. A small snake could get stuck in them. Not a good idea basically! Sorry. |

Mine was a disaster!! The snake constantly went up inside it for days! I know they like to hide away but I literally might as well have not had a snake at all! And when I tried it in the dragons viv, the crickets started drowning in it, and floating around:p I do have the base if it turned upside down now though and propped up with the other removable rocky bits as a hide so it's not all bad. I have no use for the bit with the motor and plumbing part though. Might make a nice relaxing desk feature....? :p |

It didn't occur to me as a safety issue, just an incinvienience! Maybe I'm wrong though |

I have one of these in my BRB's Viv, but even though she's not small, she's about 3ft, she still manages to squeeze inside it from time to time, and i have to leave it for a day or two for her to come out (she's much stronger than a corn and I can't get her out!)
But yeah, with corns, most likely to cause humidity issues.. |

How would it cause humidity issues any more than a water bowl though?? |
