Repti Fogger VS Monsoon

Having trouble keeping the humidity up in your tropical tank? 💧
Look no further than our Repti Fogger and Monsoon Systems! In this video, Eric goes over the differences between them and how they both work!

[@GlitchScatter]

Reptifogger is garbage that only lasts for 3-6 months. DO NOT BUY THIS CRAP. Make your own fogger with ultrasonic cool mist humidifiers, don't waste your time with reptifogger.

[@chriselliott1702]

1/2" pvc pipe and fittings fits the reptifogger too. A great replacement for that collapsible tube.

[@qwertytwerq]

Wow! I wish a had a shop like this near me...

[@TheGhungFu]

So the Repti makes fog and the Monsoon makes mist. Thanks!

[@lazymomma93]

Have a ball python can I use the monsoon without making whole on tank

[@TyeDyedIguana]

It really depends on your enclosure. If it has a mesh top, sometimes it can be set up to spray through the mesh, but it does tend to make it less effective and sometimes only drips through the mesh. Just make sure if you're using the Monsoon on something like a ball python, make sure the surface of the substrate doesn't stay wet constantly. They need humidity, but wet conditions plus any bacteria (from poop, food, etc.) can cause scale rot. Humid hides are a good option, because they can control how much humidity they're exposed to.

monsoon is horrible. mine won't last 6 months. Switched to MIUS, never been happier!

[@Somemidwestcomedian]

I'm about to upgrade my yellow Belly sliders (2 males) from a 10 gallon to a 75 and it's gonna be a ecotank so lots of new fish and stuff and I really wanna get as much of a real weather system for them so this helped a lot

[@beekeeper8474]

My repti fogger died after 6 months. Used RO water. Sucks

[@airgunningcolorado78]

Will the fogger be effective on a 60"hx40"wx16"d enclosure?

[@Muerteoffical]

I would think so if you put it on full blast but I wouldn’t do it for to long because you don’t want it to get fogged out

[@terryh9684]

🤨 I envy ppl in America because in the uk we have very small pet shops that over price them self or 2by2.

[@alextavarez4709]

It would be nice if the music wasn't louder than the guy talking

[@TyeDyedIguana]

We'll keep that in mind, making our videos has been a learning experience and we try to improve them over time.

[@Amanda-mu2jy]

Where can I find a zoo med hygrotherm? And does it definitely auto turn on with the reptifogger? So if the humidity drops it will automatically start spraying again? Need something like this for my ball python.

[@Theriangirl142]

Yeah it will start auto with the hygrotherm you set what percent. You want it at and it starts it

[@plaguegang8787]

I’ve been tasked with having to take care of a salamander, do you think it would enjoy the fog/ humidity? I think it’s a mole salamander

[@icepackager]

3:43 that’s just for me I’m doing some research because I’m going to get a red eyed tree frog

[@dsd-downshiftdave8056]

Where do I get a good thunderstorm and rain system

We don't really have much to do with Amazon. What we do have is our own website and we sell these products directly from there!

[@QuakerSteveT]

Great vid and crew, thanks for helping me on the phone today from out of state! A+ Team!!!

[@AlphaAussies]

Thanks for the info i just have one question. Would the monsoon be ideal to replace the little dripper for a chameleon?

[@jonas2431]

I have the reptifogger for my veiled chameleon and I mist my chameleon cage 2 times a day

[@rosedonnapur]

I’m going into hospital for a week what would you recommend I use on my frogs

[@TyeDyedIguana]

Either size of the Monsoon has a built-in timer system. You can set it to run for a certain amount of time every few hours up to 24. That's probably your best bet if you don't have someone to mist them for you. That being said, the reservoir only holds so much, so you'll want to run it ahead of time to see how long it will last and to figure out what settings you want to use. You might need someone to refill it partway through the week.

[@pershop4950]

It depends on what's wrong with your frogs. If they have a headache, then aspirin might help, but if they have an upset stomach, then try Pepto-Bismol.

[@c.h.1713]

OVER PRICED SHIT.

[@revans2003]

Thank you, that was helpful

[@11951miguel]

Will it explode bulbs with the moisture? I have the bulbs inside the enclosure for my tegu.

[@TyeDyedIguana]

It can if the bulbs actually get wet. It's best if you can direct it away from your lighting, or put it on the opposite side of the enclosure.

[@johnwhite6538]

hell of a beard bro

[@eoincollins1883]

Great information,thank you.

[@moerichardson3832]

What would be better 4 a Burmese albino python

[@TyeDyedIguana]

Since they don't rely on water droplets to drink like geckos or some other arboreal animals, either one will work, really.

[@ballsinbrothersmouth5411]

hey i just got a painted frog a while ago and just got a glass lid now how would i put in the fogger and should i get one if the humidity for him should only be like 70ish?

[@TyeDyedIguana]

The foggers are generally best used with a mesh lid as you can just set them up to fog through the top. If you have a glass lid, you'll need to find a way to make a hole into the enclosure. Glass lids don't provide much in the way of ventilation, so be aware that if you do use a fogger that you'll want to monitor the humidity closely and make sure that the tank doesn't get overly damp or stagnant.

[@MGIC-raws]

I have dart frogs and a 2ft long vivarium. I have a repti fogger and I want a mister but heard bad things about the monsoon. Is it worth getting?

[@TyeDyedIguana]

We have had little to no issues with the ones that we use here at the shop. We use RO water in ours so there's no risk of mineral buildup and clogging. The other problem that sometimes comes up is if you pour water into the hole in the lid, occasionally the water gets into the electronics. We recommend you don't use that and just lift the whole lid to fill the holding container directly.

[@AlexaBellaMuerte]

Hey! Which is better for crested geckos being left alone for one weekend? Lol

[@tatemushroom1002]

probably the monsoon

[@travelinghermit]

I'm looking for a humidity controller to constantly monitor and adjust humidity. Any leads would be appreciated!

[@TyeDyedIguana]

Zoo Med's HygroTherm is probably what you're looking for.

[@travelinghermit]

@@TyeDyedIguana Thanks, that's what I'm looking for, now to find a vendor that actually has it in stock...

[@Gazza-is2tk]

Mistking all day long

[@TyeDyedIguana]

It is a great product, unfortunately not one we carry.

[@aBatwoman]

Reptifogger is the worst breaks easy.

[@antonlugo7803]

Would a dripper and a fogger work, fogger for the humidity, dripper for the hydration, would that work?

[@TyeDyedIguana]

The two could be used together. The Dripper is a self-enclosed water system and should not add too much to the overall humidity, which is what the Repti-Fogger helps provide. You'll just want to make sure you don't overdo it or that the enclosure doesn't become waterlogged.

[@antonlugo7803]

I was thinking of getting the mister, does that do both, humidity and water system, or do i need a dripper on top of the mister?

[@azcowboy330]

Does anyone have a good cleaning video for hard water build up?

[@peterharoldjanakjr2078]

Would either or both be great for Hermit Crabs?

[@linkbros21]

at 2:47 why do you have so many cresties together isn't usually a bad idea to cohab unless its male and female or female and another female

[@mp29940]

Where can i get that magnet clip?

[@KelseyLynnMusic]

second this

[@andyk7967]

I've heard the Monsoon systems are notorious for breaking, how true is that?

[@TyeDyedIguana]

We've seen it happen on occasion. Usually it's one of two things. If the water being used wasn't distilled or R/O water and the mineral build up has clogged the system up. Sometimes that can be fixed by running a mixture of white vinegar and water through the system to break up up the clogs. The other issue is that sometimes if you pour water through the opening in the top, it inadvertently gets into the electronics. Obviously this isn't supposed to happen, but it does. We recommend when refilling to simply lift the whole top up and pour water directly into the holding tank.

[@andyk7967]

@@TyeDyedIguana Thank you! I'm torn between this or a fogger hooked up to the Hygrotherm system.

[@TyeDyedIguana]

​@@andyk7967 It really depends on the animal you're trying to provide for. If you're needing to simply boost the humidity for say, a snake, the fogger system might be best. If you're looking at something for say, a gecko, the mister system might be better as they'll actually prefer to have all those water drops available to drink.

[@andyk7967]

@@TyeDyedIguana Ok. This is a set-up for some red-eyed tree frogs, naturally planted.

[@funundercarkids]

Do you have a website

Yes we do! 😃 It's right here at thetyedyediguana.com/

Very helpful video brother. Nicely done!!

[@sasfishadventures9729]

Awesome!

[@royfaustina6029]

Is the fogger or the mister better for iguanas

[@TyeDyedIguana]

The mister is great for reptiles like geckos or chameleons that prefer to get their water from droplets, though you can use it to boost humidity. If you're looking for just a humidity boost, the fogger may be your better option.

[@nootnoot7607]

Can a fogger cause respiratory issues

[@TyeDyedIguana]

It could potentially, if it's overused and the environment is allowed to get too saturated or gets stagnant. Lots of tropical animals need a "dry out" period throughout the day. You'll want to keep an eye on your humidity levels and adjust it appropriately for the species you're keeping.

[@ironbloodbismarck562]

Are these good with ball pythons?

[@TyeDyedIguana]

While ball pythons need some humidity, the Fogger and Monsoon are better for truly tropical conditions. You'd be better off either offering a humid hide the snake could choose to go into or spritzing only occasionally, providing your bedding is not aspen which will mold quite quickly.
