Humidity Too High

[Melicious]

I've been having a lot of problems with keeping Ody's humidity lower. I had him in a ten gallon tank, but because I continuously got extremely high humidities, I've put him in a sterilite 20qt until I can get him something better. The teps are fine, but the humidity is still too high.

HELP! -Sighs.- And God, do I feel like an irresponsible mommy.

Drill some holes in it and you should be fine

I put in three sets of ten...

yeah drill or melt some more holes, if the humidity gets too low with new holes then just cover some of the holes up with tape, just watch the fumes from melting the holes though, they may make you a little

hmmm, how big is the water bowl?

[Melicious]

It's maybe eight ounces. If even that. It's a small little water dish that I've had around the apartment. The one I had in his tank was about half the size of the enclosure.

Oh, and that's why man made power drills. ^_^

Are your holes around the sides or on the top? Also is the water bowl on the cooler side of the tub? Depends too on the ambient humidity in the room his tub is in so you might want to see what you are dealing with there as well.

[Melicious]

The "ambient" humidity is floating around 33%. The water's on the cool side. Holes are on the top.

I guess your just gonna have to drill some more holes, lol. How about on the lid?
