In my big terrarium I have the vent up high on the warm side (on the side of the terrarium) and down low on the cool side. That way the convection that occurs (heat rising on the warm side because of the heat light) creates a gentle flow that keeps the air in the terrarium cycling without making it breezey. Check out my site for pictures of my set up and some more advice on the topic.
