That's what I have for Snickers. I took it out though after all the discussion concerning the humidity.

Medium, and as for the humidity snickers, why don;t just just take out the moss?

I have a small cave and i just put a bit of aspen in there. Plan on using the moss when casper goes into shed, then afterwards will take out and just put some aspen back in there.

Definately! However, couldn't the tube be covered with something to make it look a bit less like a pringles tube?

Ahh, salt dough! Never though of that and I bet it'd look pretty nifty afterwards! Although, think you'd probably have to use the tube as a mould as I don't think a pringles tube would do too well in the oven!
