    I guess I'm gonna put foil on the top...

    how exactly do you do it?

    Thank you.

    it depends on the design of your enclosure lid.

    my glass enclosure lid has a solid metal edge around the mesh, so i was able to tape the foil to the edges.

    you could also cut cardboard to size and wrap it in the foil for a less permanent solution.

    The way I do the foil thing on my glass tanks is I get a piece of cardboard, cut it to the shape of the screen top and cut out holes for the lamp and a space on the other end for ventilation then wrap it completely in tin foil and put in on the top of the screen.

    I used to just use foil on the lid but it ripped up super easily, the cardboard is nice and sturdy and the foil keeps the cardboard from molding

    What worked for my glass tank, I covered part of it with a towel, and then when the humidity drops you can wet the towel a little and that works wonderful for at least 5 days with no heavy misting, I've been misting just twice a week, it's fantastic!
