You can try moving the water dish farther from the flexwatt.. and you can also drill more holes (try some in the lid directly above the flexwatt)

Just to be sure.. do you have something controlling the flexwatt (thermostat or rheostat) ?? Because you said it got to 98 degrees.. that shouldn't be a problem if you have a t-stat or rheostat to turn down a few notches. Is your cool side still above 80 degrees?

well, she did leave me a present, but that was before the humidity went all hokey. I had it cleaned up before this started.

I moved her water dish AND drilled more holes already...still not working.

I have dimmers attached to the flexwatt. have been monitering temps regularly, but when it hit 98 degrees, I simply opened the cage and let it breathe. by this time, I had so much extra moisture, it soaked the substrate on one side.

now, the problem is, I am having issues with the OTHER tank. the one I was having trouble with before, is now aparently fine. ita Nagaina's tank, on top, that is giving me grief.
