As for poison dart frogs, if you know of any about 1/4" in size they would absolutely be welcome. I do have fast approaching the need to stage everything and the more the merrier, not unlike the walls and shelves of ETB and the shores of the Jungle Cruise. Ha! Maintaining water quality of anything is nothing short of a full-time job..... As this looks to be 'portable', using any kind of float device to maintain water levels may be out of the question as well. The sonic fogger will work, it's about the size of a 50 cent piece. It's just a matter of positioning it at the right depth (which requires maintenance due to evaporation). So you request for an 'easy solution' is still elusive, I apologize. But at this point, you have to ask yourself, "What would a volcano look like without smoke?" And poison dart frogs are about 8 times the order of magnitude you would need for your project. To say the least, "Attack Of The Giant Frogs" would be your poster.
