    Default Two tanks?? Most king, hygrotherm questions

    I'm in the process of setting up another enclosure for an albino Pacman. I already have a hygrotherm and reptifogger on my ornates tank.

    My question is I'm going to be purchasing a mist king. Is there a way to monitor both tanks humidity with two hygrotherms and 1 mist king. If so how?? Do they have separate plugs for separate tubing??

    Any suggestions for the best way to do this??

    Thanks

    LJ,

    I have a Hydrotherm and a Mist King system. I do not use the Hydrotherm to control the Mist King system. When I did I ran into issues with the misting system swamping out the substrate. I ended up playing around with the mist system to figure out how often I needed to mist for the plants while keeping the humidity within the desired range. I then hooked up the Mist king system to a Mist King timer and programed it for the "On" and "off" schedule I needed. Doing this for 2 tanks shouldn't be much different assuming the enclosures will be ventilated in much the same way.

    As for how to hook up the mist king system to multiple tanks. You can get either get a "T" connector to split the water line at the pump or when you order the new mist head get one with a "T" connector on it (if the tanks are side by side). One mistaking system can run up to 10 mist heads.
