I am not real sure as to what you mean on "converting" a UH to a misting system, but the UH I use basically does the same thing as a Misting System given that you leave it running long enough. I leave mine on for 10 minutes 2x a day (morning and night) and 3 minutes mid-day. It leaves a large amount of Dew around the tanks, the frogs love it, and it looks really cool. Here are some pictures of it. The only change I have made is using Correlated Tubing (some Blue kind from Home Depot) instead of PVC.. it looks better and my PVC kept getting clogged by bubbles forming. The brand is Sunbeam from Walgreens. If you have any other questions feel free to ask.

What type of rubber stopper did you use for that?

As far as brand goes, I dont know. However, there is a large section of rubber stoppers at Home Depot/Lowes/etc that should have a 2 inch rubber stopper pile. The stoppers have 3 1x1/4 inch holes in them that I just covered up with Electrical or Duct Tape.
