glass enclosures are notoriously difficult to maintain appropriate humidity levels. it can certainly be done but it's a pain and a daily effort. if you're dead set on a display enclosure, I'd recommend taking a look at cages produced by boaphile, animal plastics, barr's, etc. while not cheap, they're not extravagantly expensive, and they all are vastly superior to glass cages.
