Anyone know what a nebulizer is? Know anyone with asthma? A nebulizer is that contraption that they put meds in, connect it to a small air compressor, and it aerosolizes the meds. I have a bunch of brand new ones and the air compressors to go with them. Think I can use them for misting and humidity? drill holes into the box send the nebulizer outlets into the box, use sterile water? What up?

Nebulizers work great for both humidity and FAE. They put out a significant amount of humid air.
Regular tap water works fine.
Just run the outlets into holes in your tub. The output can be split to automate FAE for many tubs. I put mine on a timer and run it to four 18 gallon monotubs. I've got mine rigged to pull from a gallon reservoir so I don't have to fill it very often.
I have used a nebulizer for my monotubs, and actually prefer them to coolmist humidifiers. They seem to withstand backpressure better, making them last longer.
The only drawback I've found is that they can be noisy.

Kinda, but way over what I put together. I just have a rubbermaid box with fitted lid. I screwed a flourescent light to the inside of the lid, ran three of these asthma nebs into the side with hepa filters on the outside, I'm gonna add some perlite and an aquarium pump too.
