The Exo Terra Monsoon Y-connector is an accessory designed for use with the Exo Terra Monsoon RS400 misting unit. Its purpose is to extend the system by allowing you to connect an additional misting nozzle to the existing setup. This way, you can increase the coverage area of the misting system or create a more comprehensive misting environment for your reptiles or plants.

By using multiple Y-connectors, you can expand the system further and add up to a total of 6 misting nozzles, providing a more extensive misting coverage in your terrarium or vivarium.

Regarding the water used in the misting system, it’s recommended to use distilled water. Distilled water is free from impurities and minerals, which can potentially clog the misting nozzles or leave mineral deposits on surfaces over time. By using distilled water, you can ensure a cleaner and more efficient misting system with reduced chances of clogging or maintenance issues. Regular tap water might contain minerals or other substances that could lead to problems with the misting system’s performance.
