Humidifiers

i once found a fogger in a decoration store i bought it for 10$ or so and it works...
and when it is broken i would just buy another one for again something like 10$.
it almost looks the same as a terrarium fogger and it does exactly the same only the price is much lower!
the price of a replacement part from exo terra is just the half of the price of a whole fogger elsewhere!
i dont know where you could find it beacouse i live in europe but i think if you keep looking you will find one!

ps. for the dutch or european people on this forum: i once found it in BLOKKER for 9,95€

No prob. Its the repti fogger, with the hose. The house if quite handy, I just poul the house over and use it into my chameleon cage when he sheds. And that speeds it up and is a healthy one at that.

I also use the Repti Fogger and find it wonderful. I only use dechlorinated water to not clog the hose.

Two Exo-Terra Foggers were given to me, and those really did poorly. They quickly found a new home on Craigslist.

Yea the exo terra fogger had to have the exact about of water above it or it wouldn't function at 100%, and if you ran it in a cup it would eventually use up the water in it. So therefor it never worked properly. And the when placed in a terrarium the inhabitants could not come into contact with it for "health and safety" reasons. (i wonder why that would be in the directions of a product made to be in with the animals we care for and love?)

The downfall to the repti fogger is the tube collecting water. But not a huge issue. If you keep the unit underneath the end of the fog tube, the water will roll back and be re used

i bought a zoo med repti fogger for $50 at petsmart, and it works great i would deffinetly reccomend it

I have a reptifogger in all my tanks and I like them. But they are not there to replace misting. I have mine controlled by the Zoo med Hygrotherm that way they only come on once maybe twice a day and usually for less than a minute. I use them so that I can go on a mini vacation and I don't have to have anyone frogsit. But again they should not be used to replace your regular hand misting routine. Using distilled water in them helps them to last longer.

exo terra: thats the ultrasonic one you are talking about right? I bought one of those about a year ago and LOVED the fog it put off, and the cool effect it gave my tanks.. but definitely a piece of ****, it quit working in about a week.. Thankfully I kept the receipt and returned it.

Hygrotherm: i was looking at those on amazon, is it worth the 70$ just for humidity control? it sounds like a really neat thing to have for my dart frogs tank but sounds like you would need a seperate one for every tank which sounds like a fairly costly investment. Also, im sure that the extended lifetime it gives the reptifogger is well worth it.. right?

On a second note, does anyone know what humidity levels Red Eyed Tree Frogs prefer?
