    Water temps should be delegated by ambient temp in the vivarium. What species of amphibian are you planing on keeping?

    Amazon Milk Frog. I'm gonna put a rain system, a waterfall and a tupper/bowl well decorated with a fogger, but I didn't know if the temperature should be one in special. So I put mineral/spring water at normal T, and it will get hot because of the ambient, Will not?

    The water will warm up with the vivarium. Environment. I would be careful with ultrasonic forgers in a water feature. They tend to heat the water and could cause detriment to your milk frog.

    i've been using ultrasonic foggers in water features for quite a while. i have never had a heat issue, or any other issue for that matter. just a side note, the water in a viv will be roughly 5-10 degrees F below the ambient temp. i always regulated my false bottom temps with aquarium heaters set at roughly 78 deg. F.

    I'll be a bit more specific. The water temp won't be unbearably cold in comparison to the environment in the viv. :P.

    With regards to the fogger, I've read about these guys getting warm and heating the water. Not so much to a boiling point but making the water warm. I suppose it would depend on the pond size and weather you're keeping false bottom or a divided area area for water.
