ultrasonnic fogger
 
i have been look a lot on this one:

http://s7v1.scene7.com/is/image/John...407900?$list4$

is a bionaire compact ultrasonic humidifier

I realy cheap here in denmark - less then 40 dollars.

And i want to ask if any of you guys ever used a machine like this for fog in your tanks?

i were thinking about putting on a tube on it, that will go into the tank and then put it on a timer to run 4-5 times a day making fog in my tank.

Can this be dane, and will it harm my chids?

Fog will not harm your orchids unless they never dry out. I know this has been done many times with people who keep vivariums. Will it produce enough fog for it to reach the tank?

had the same and broke after a while. but i could return it to target. wonder if it can only run a few hours every day and not all the time. it was nice and quiet tho. and no filters to replace

I used one of these for a while. Mine had a little motor to propel the fog to. I had it on a timer. One day I came home to discover the unit had seized up and was issuing smoke. Lucky I got home in time.

Another method is using a reverse osmosis water pump, tubing and fogging nozzles. A cheaper version of some comercially available misters
