    the carnuvorous plant addiction tends to do that.... its awesome and scary at the same time

    you could build a DIY cooler system with a used water cooler for less then the 400 and save on electricity at the same time

    Instead of the AC you could buy small refrigerator and pump cold air from it into the terrarium

    Perhaps pure liquid nitrogen pumped into the water trays would do? That should cool things down enough.

    Your neps would look "smashing"

    I froze two enormous distilled water bottles last night, so I can alternate between them, should be enough to cool my terra for about a day and a half.
