here's some pics of the setup, maybe someone can spot what I'm doing wrong, from one of the pics you can see how it's barely fizzling water at all:(

I did find this system on ebay, does this look like a good one in your opinion? I have no clue on how to use these and just want to make sure that all the parts I would need are illustrated there :o http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290568672995&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

We have bottled water but they are not that cheap and rarely go on sale, also the issue that I don't have a car so buying those big jugs would be a real hassle to drag back, not to mention a pain in my back :S

No I haven't tried it without the zip drip, but I'm hoping that's not the issue because I did pay to have it along with the pump :(

No I think the problem is that because the pump and the reservoir are side by side, according to mistking, my reservoir is supposed to be up higher than my pump:confused: so I'm going to have to move some stuff around to try to fix that problem and hopefully *fingers crossed* it won't give me...

Thanks for the tip! Marty did respond to my message very quickly too when I explained my situation. I will have to play around with it some more today. I think maybe my problem is that both my reservoir and my pump are on the floor side by side and the cage is about three feet above both of...

I think you might be right and I don't even know how to fix it :( I've tried soaking the nozzles in the vinegar warm water mix and it didn't do anything, seems now it's even worst! one of them is not shooting water anymore at all and the other one is fizzling more than anything else, I've...

oh ok! thanks for letting me know how that works :) I was wondering, using filtered/bottled water can run up expenssive around here, do you think if I treat the water with reptile water conditioner, (the same way you would to make it softer/safer for reptiles to drink) think that could work in...

I know I'm going to sound silly but I have an extra part that came with it and I have no idea where it goes :o I figured out the zip drip valve no problem but the regulator ( which I'm guessing what that extra part is, it's got a blue turn valve of sorts?), I tried to find videos or pictures of...

Hi, ok so I've followed all the instructions and I've set up my mistking, it's been running for about two weeks now. I make sure to fill up the reservoir everyday. But the past two days it seems like my three nozzles are more "spitting" and squirting, rather than the fine mist they started out...

Hi, someone had suggested that I order a repti- breeze from Zoobecks.com has anyone else ordered from them? I've been waiting for over a month now for my new cage and still nothing! I called, spoke to a girl who said she would pass along the message and they still haven't called back. I sent a...

Yup, that's exactly what I've been doing is spraying everywhere and when I saw her open her mouth, I gently spray near her snout and she would drink like this. I adjusted the misting system earlier and ran it for twenty minutes and sure enough after a few minutes I could see her drinking the...

Thanks for giving me an idea of how much I should set the timer for. I do have a 48x24x24 on the way in the mail it's one of those zoobreeze ( I think that's what it was called ) I'm going to be putting her in there as soon as it gets here and fix my timer up for those amounts of time like you have.

No she hasn't been raising her head, only when I was misting near her mouth and she was drinking would she raise her head up a bit and she would open her mouth to take in the water and I could see her swallowing.

The zoomed light we got her is supposed to be uvb as well. I'll try putting another light beside the basking light just to get the temp up higher. I have gone over that site and read it but she's displaying such random symptoms that I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I do have a mesh cage that...
