I wouldn't use one for an exo terra tbh, because of the mess lid the humidity escapes quite quickly and misters tend to make the viv quite cold

What's your humidity like atm?
I know from experience that it's very hard to keep humidity in exo terras full stop

around 45-50% most the day increasing at night to 55-60% but its the water avaliable to my cham as he has a waterful but drinks from the droplets on his plant too

to be honest nick a mister in an exo terra is not idea, why not get some plastic sheets cut to fit ontop of the mess to stop it from escaping?
i did this with alot of my frogs.

is it one of those exo terra waterfalls? TBH I'd take that out unless you're very vigilant with cleaning it, they're a hotbed for bad bacteria

Also Yemens are from the desert and dont need a high humidity. Live plants and spraying will be enough.
