Default Buoys for foggers?

I've been trying to get my hands on a buoy for my fogger, and believe it or not, I haven't been able to find any! I checked ebay a while back - nothing

Does anyone know of any websites that offer these?
Thanks!

Describe this thing. I don't think I know what you are talking about. THanks

Have you tried the ExoTerra website? I know they make a similiar fogger, not too sure if they would have the part you are looking at though.

Hmm. I just went to their website...no luck!

For the last year I've had a make shift styrofoam/wire contraption that's been holding the fogger head, but it's so finicky and allows the head to move out of position and stop creating adequate mist. That's how I lost my Comparettia falcata -- the mister moved, I didn't notice for a couple days (blame my university exams), and by the time I did, it had dried right out.

You place a fogger head:

into so that it floats at the correct depth to generate the optimal amount of mist.

Boy, that is a tough thing to find, I found only one company in the US which sells them. Wish I could have helped more. I could use one myself.

What company, if you don't mind me asking?

I'm surprised that they're so difficult to find, really. It seems like they should be plentiful considering how easy it is to find them foggers themselves.

Hm..
