Please give me your input about this air exchange idea I just came up with, my FOAF needs a way to provide air exchange to his terrerium without having to fan every day. Bascially the pic is self explanitory, post any questions you may have about it if your confused. The hair dryer will be set to a timer, not constantly running obviously.

Unless you attach that air source to a humidified mixing box it will dry your terrarium out with the outside air, and you won't be able to keep the humidity up.....

a hair dryer would be too hot unless you disabled the heating element.
proly better off using an aquarium air pump running a bubble stone in a jar of water so you'd get humid fresh air.
