You know, I went to petsmart last week looking for this, they didnt have it, and I didnt make it to petco, I saw a place selling it for
$39.99 , so I did a google search and found several places selling
it for $12.00, without pump, what pet shop did you see it at?
Yell its the same thing, for misting lizards.

i dont remember if it is petland or petco but petsmart was out at the time .. but i got mine from a mushroom website for 50.00 but u can get it at a pet store for like 15.00 it would be very simple to make one but at the time i never saw one when i bought it so i didnt know the concept of the device but id imagine a water bottle, sponge, air hose, and air pump, drill bit some springwater with a teaspoon of bleach to keep water clean cause once these are filled with water they last a very long time more then a week

cause my two tier green house isnt large at all maybe like two 20 gallon rubber maids stacked on top of each other with wire shelfs...im just wondering if i leave it on 24/7 if it might do the same as a cool mist cause with a cool mist im thinking i may have to set it on a timer and that would mean its to powerful for my setup thats why i wanna go with the other machine

try it out. put a humidity gage in there if you dont have enough humidity then you know you need to try something else...personally i dont know if it would or not thats why i say try it out if you got it you might as well use it. i just use a tote with perlite

I would think it will work, because my settup is 1, 20 gal tub with a
shelf in the middle, I am going to buy one of these in the next few weeks, I was hopeing to find one local. I have to hit petco,
and see about a petland.
