    My water bowl is pretty small to start and I don't put a lot of water in it.

    But, I made some changes. There are 3 rows of staggered holes about 1" apart around the sides and the lid. I also moved the tub from a corner to right next to a window where there is a channel of air. Granted, the humidity is still high in my area, but it's going down.
    Here's a pic:

    Remember that the depth of the water does not matter for humidity issues. Its the surface area of the water touching the air that counts.

    Take the water dish and place it on the cool side. This sounds very wrong because I have about 12-15 holes in my tub and my humidity is about 50%. TUBS are definitely easier from what I have gathered to maintain then glass aquariums.

    Did you ever try putting a fan near the tub?

    Like I said, the water bowl is pretty small to begin with.
    It is on the cool side as well, and I've been making sure it doesn't get warm.

    Kaorte, I did when it wasn't raining. It helped a little, but it's just been so humid in general. It's around 76-78% but there's really nothing I can do until the rain passes.
