I would think the holes are on the sides of monotubs are better than the top, becouse the co2 builds up in the bottom of the tub.

ahh, back OT. Actually, the lower holes vent the CO2. And logically, since the inside of the tub is warmer, I'd bet the fresh air is entering through the lower holes and exiting through the top holes.
It should make no difference whether the holes are near the top, or on the top, unless you cover the tub with something, or want to stack several tubs. I've only done a mono-tub once, and put the upper exchange on the lid. Seemed to work fine.

Nice. See, look at this cat, that's what we call advancement folks, he didn't even try to claim his idea as a new tek or anything.
Now what we do is we check to see if C02 really does build up on the bottom, and then if it doesn't, then we point this out. If it does like he says, we tell him ''good work'', and thank him for adding this piece of insight. What we don't do however, is blindly take his word for it, or tell him he's wrong for no reason just cause so-and-so didn't tell you this was right and so-and-so said that they came up with CO2 and said that CO2 doesn't build up, it builds out. That's what we don't do, folks. Just like how we don't use our outside voices inside and we walk on marshmellow shoes and eggshells.

What if there are no top holes?
Then the CO2 and oxygen are just mashing together in a swirl, right?

Christ man! I've never seen someone cry so much about something so petty. Roadkill, you better delete the mono tub, double tub or anything else involving a rubbermaid bin in the archives. Please rename them all the "Paradis Tub" so we can end this fucking whining.

hahaha. I was really just acting like this is OTD when it's not. I certainly do appologize for disrupting y'all.

That's cool, as long as you're just doing this to stir up the pot for enjoyment I was starting to think you were just a prick

I'd guess the CO2 would still vent, but the FAE would drop to a trickle.

I am asking that IF I do decide to use polyfil holes, would putting a hole or 2 on the top, IN ADDITION to the ones on the side, would that facilitate FAE better?

Ahh, well, the size of the holes is importaint. I wouldn't be concerned with whether they're near the top or on the top, either should be fine. I'd make the holes 1" or more and space them out every 8 inches or so, but I haven't done enough to get comparitive results. Perhaps someone else can help.

Here is my mono-tub. Im going to expand to 4 in total. with one being filled using 3inch spawn when my poo is ready.

one smallhole on other side of hose. about 1/8th inch size, no covering. I might add a computer fan to suck out the air when the coolmist is on...to help with air flow.
inside.
  
Coolmist on every 2hours for 20min. I also fan with the lid when I wake up, and before I sleep. I didnt have time to fan when the monster was growing. so the coolmist gives enough FAE. IME of course...

Ahh, well ( ), you need upper and lower holes. Without one or the other, there's no vector for air movement.

thats why I want to add a fan. to suck the air out when the coolmist is on to "replace" the air.

People are getting confused about what is implied when the word "monotub" is used. Sure, technically, it means one tub, and I think that's where the confusion comes in. Monotubs are built the same way using the same principles as doubletubs. No fanning. No coolmist systems. It's ridiculously simple. The polyfill holes at the bottom are right at substrate depth to allow for CO2 expulsion/air exchange.
It's very understandable to think that when you have one rubbermaid tub, it's a monotub, but to me, monotub implies the same tek as the double tub, no fanning, etc. Hell you're not even really supposed to peek and look at things most of the time! This is where paradis is confused as well. He thinks we're referring to just using a single rubbermaid container as a fruiting chamber (or incubator, whatever), and he notes that people have already done that. What he isn't realising is that monotub doesn't just mean one tub, it's a whole process. If you fan it, I don't really consider it a monotub.
PS someone made a thread similar to this one a while ago and someone else noted that if they were on top dust/contams might settle on top making it easier for them to get in? I think it would make a good experiment. If you're doing 4, you should do have with them on the side, and half on the top to see how things work out.

I have used mono tech on 5 gallon paint buckets holes in the sides and a clear top. Works great easy and small. You can stack them up like a pyramid.
