    Hi
    Could you get a little bit of water in there?
    Just a bit in the bottom.

    Not sure if you should use distilled or de-chlor?
    I think I would use distilled as there is lots of sediment in her container.

    Important! Do you hand or auto mist?
    What water?

    its because this tub is tilted forward there is some in there tilted backwards that hold water she has access to a pool. They are misted via a high pressure pump to a misting nozzle that goes off every 8 hours for 1 minute

    plus all the broms in there hold a lot of water i just think it gives them an option
