Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

I have found that the ultrasonic humidifiers carried at home good stores work great. You can modify the mist outlet to allow for PVC to be attached and then you can plumb it into the cage however you want.

I'm planning on making my own humidifier. I have a c-pap breathing machine that was remaining when my father in law passed a year or so ago. I am simply going to open it up and bypassed the controls so that it can be wired to a timer or preferably a humidistat. It even has the hose that comes off of it that would go to the face mask. I'm simply going to run the hose to a large plastic nipple I will attach to the side of the cage and place a sensor in the cage for the humidistat. Should work out nicely. I can get pics of the machine for anyone who hasn't heard of a c-pap machine. It wouldn't be cost effective to purchase one for reptile use, but if you could get a used one or if one is left to you, they should work great. You have to use distilled water in it though, but I'm not sure why, probably hard mineral buildup inside it.

I just rounded the output on an ultrasonic humidifier with a dremmel and attached a piece of PVC. The terrarium is a 75gal, the humidifier is plumbed up the side and around to the front. Takes about 15 min to completely fog the tank. It runs four times a day, and uses about 1 gallon of deionized water every two weeks.
