I have, payed $129 for it, bought two dropped them into 'arena board' plexi i got for $5 cut 30 holes in, rests in a 40 gallon botanicare res. I wanted to make something close to the aquamist, so i chose the botanicare res given its depth. I cannot say a thing about the sprayer other than the older sprayers are louder than the new ones as my local shop had a bunch of old stock. Unfortunately i received sick clones and although the roots grew beautifully and the plants initially exploded I knew I had received bad babies..... now the bug/mildew problem has more than reared its head and I am going to start from scratch. As with any aero system watch out for root rot, bubble wands and a pump to circulate the water in the res is great. Also a chiller or some sort of temp control s the way to go. Cannot let the res temps get out of control.... Also the nice thing about the vortex is that its not actually sucking the water through a pump, just up the tube and spinning it out as a mist. So if you got a good deal on say sure to grow loose fill the worst that would happen is that is gets stuck in the tube, not sucked through a pump. Its definitly one of the finest mists youll see.
