humidification idea

i want to build a system for keeping humidity high in terrarium, exchange the air in it and keep temp as best as possible.

will this simple idea work? i mean, will air go from blower to terrrarium, carrying water particles? if this can work, then i can have a heater+thermostat in the water tank, hence increase temp in water and produce some vapor too.

Yep that'll work fine.Add a aquarium bubble stone to the flow from blower and it will be even wetter air  Also the heater(aquarium style would do wonders)is a good idear. Also if pos use some kind of simple filter for the air entering the container.Some thing like polly fill id say. good luck in dry old greece lol

my friends mom tried using shop-vac with a 'blow' mode, and had it go into a 2 gal bucket of h. peroxide, & water..... this seemed to work ok, and didn't lower humid. as low as not go through bucket... my friends mom had a timer in place, it was on a 15 mins every 2 hours cycle.... the vacuum is 'new' (as a used one maybe a contam source) the vacuum intake is stuffed w/polyfill that is sprayed w/10:1 water:bleach weekly... my friends mom likes to fidget with stuff and usually goes overboard, but i felt it maybe good information for you....

This is what happens when you put you system together wasted. By adj the timers on the humidifiers I can make it any humidity level I want and keep it there. Now I?m gonna add your water heater tek and see what happens.

What are those things that look like big square cakes? Was it a casing that fully colonized or something?
