Generates a cold mist in all types of terrariums. Ideal for increasing humidity levels and creating a natural misty and damp environment. Operates in any water part (e.g. Exo Terra Water Dishes, Waterfalls, etc.) as shallow as 5 cm!
Key Features :
Increases air humidity levels up to 100%
Great visual effect Simulates low clouds and fog in the tropical terrariums
Generates early morning dew in desert terrariums.
Tree frogs, like many other amphibians, benefit from environments with high humidity levels. Foggers are particularly beneficial for tree frogs for several reasons:
-
Moisture: Tree frogs have delicate, porous skin that needs to stay moist to facilitate respiration and maintain proper hydration. Foggers help create a humid environment, preventing their skin from drying out.
-
Hydration: Tree frogs absorb water through their skin, so a humid environment provided by foggers ensures they have access to water even if they're not actively drinking from a water source.
-
Respiration: Tree frogs have a semi-permeable skin that allows them to absorb oxygen directly from the environment. Higher humidity levels can facilitate this process, making it easier for tree frogs to breathe.
-
Behavioral Comfort: Many tree frog species are native to tropical or subtropical regions where fog or mist is common. Foggers simulate these natural conditions, making the frogs feel more comfortable and reducing stress.
-
Habitat Mimicry: Foggers help replicate the natural habitats of tree frogs, such as rainforests or cloud forests, where mist and fog are prevalent. This can encourage natural behaviors and activity levels in captive tree frogs.
Overall, foggers are beneficial for tree frogs because they help maintain the high humidity levels that these amphibians require for their health and well-being. However, it's essential to monitor humidity levels closely to ensure they remain within the optimal range for the specific species of tree frog being kept.
