Default Pleuros in the mist!

sounds like a knock off of a film in the late 90's but its my own version. I bought an ultrasonic humidifier and I just love it, not to mention ive had such an increase in growth! So thought Id share a pic of the pleuros in the mist. Masdies and Dracs.

Very nice!! What is the name of your humidifier and where did you get it? Do you have a pic of it?

I was thinking of getting something like this for a while now.

What kind of a container do you use for your ultrasonic fogger? I couldn't keep the water from splashing out of mine and because of that...I couldn't set it on a timer to come on multiple times a day.

How do you keep them cool enough? Even with the humidity and air moving, I can't get my temps down low enough at night now that the weather is warming up. Just can't afford to turn the A/C down that low at night and keep it that low during the day. My kids suggested putting some sort of ice/cool pack in front of the blowing fan and possibly dropping temps that way.

I have a small ultrasonic in my vivarium. I bought mine a lfs and it was only about $10. The water only splashes up if the water level is too high...my Pleuro stricta put up six new leaves after introducing the humidifier!

Scott, yours look very nice...well done!
