as far as I am concerned--it is just alot of annoying maintenence--I didnt find that it helped with humidity---the anoles were really attracted to it though.My anoles drink out of a bowl---but not as often as they should. You can find them anywhere--just go on the internet and search for reptile water fountain.--links should appear!

The reason why most of us have waterfalls is because anoles don’t usually drink out of standing bodies of water like bowls. Moving water attacts their attention. Even a ’dripper’ creates moving water but you still need something to catch the water and not overflow. There isn’t much of a humidity increase with the waterfalls alone but you can sometimes install a fogger or mister which makes more of a difference. Waterfalls aren’t usually cheap and you can save a lot of money by misting the tank yourself with a hand sprayer 3 to 4 times a day.

mist your anole and it will drink, I also have had a couple that did drink standing water, but not all do, misting seems to be the best way.
