When he gets out of the water, you need to check the bowl for tiny black dots a tad larger than the period at the end of this sentence.

If you can't find any mites, you might just have a soaker on your hands. Is his water bowl over the heat source?
I've never seen him soaking before today! That's why I thought maybe it was something they do to help them digest or what not... and yes the water bowl is over the heat source! I will definitely check for mites when he leaves the bowl, though.
