You have a warm air vaporisor which is used to treat colds. Humidifiers blow cold air. I do use both in my reptile rooms. The vaporisor is a good way to prevent upper respiratory infections by utilizing the medicine cup. But you will have a very hard time keeping the humidity at a consistent level with a vaporisor.

the best way to keep humidity up in the cage is to not use screened covered enclosures. Scrap the fish tank set up and try to pick up a used vision cage or something similar. room size humidifiers can cost upwards of $100. for a decent one.

Hope this helps.
