    Thanks. Yeah, 3 hours isn't bad if we catch a sunny day (like today) and catch a nice dinner on the way back.
    I mainly want to grab another yellow dart and see if they have spare add on nozzles for the Monsoon. Thats the main issue so far, a splitter and adding nozzles.
    I talked to my local dealer and they were going to check with the rep.

    Mist King you get from Mist King so you know where to get nozzles.

    Good luck with the plants today. Your back ground looks awesome.

    Keep in mind almost everyone kills the oakleaf creeping fig. Its usually a pain to keep thriving without air circulation.

    Mike, I just planted these two today in mine. The breeder says good light (6700 Kelvin), lots of humidity (2 good mistings per day) and good aeration. I'll keep you posted about mine, and good luck with yours!

    Both of those do well under a well lit viv and good humidity but well drained soil. The also do well in a clay background. Good air circulation is a must for the oak leaf to thrive. Its a pricier plant because everyone kills it.

    Are those the only plants your using? There are many Hoya, Dischidia, Philodendron, Peperomia, Pilea, and other species that thrive in vivs. Also many others with larger leaves like palms, Anthuriums, and Alocasia.
