Might try my tried and true method showing over at Roc Villa's This Old Pile of Shit...

I started out with the tub for nothing but cakes but it has served me well in bulk trays, rescued cups, etc.

I used it with a KazKoolmist in the early daze but have since just placed it near a heat/ac floor vent and the tube picks up the air and flows thru and pushs out the gas.

Here's the link... http://forums.mycotopia.net/photo-ga...pile-shit.html

The archives here are a good source... might even find my step by step on when I first built it.

I just dump perlite about 2-3" deep
( adding a plastic trash bag liner make clean up easier )
wet it enough so it's soaked, but not pooling water
use lids/foil/trays/etc... to seperate cakes from the perlite
and give fresh air a couple times a day

you can buy an undercabnet flouro light for $5
screw that to the top of your lid to provide neccessary light
