Hey does anyone know how i can stop condensation from building up on the lid for my tank? Becuase every time i go to feed my fish or do a water change, i get soaked

Is there a way i can stop this? Or even a modified lid i can make to stop it?

It could also be from the bubbles of my air pump too

What does the lid on your tank look like.

Is it one piece of glass??

If so, get the lid cut lengthwise about 1/3 to 2/3rds, with the smaller to the front, When feeding, lift the front glass by the leading edge towards the tank and the condesate will go into the tank again.

Ohok Thanks Alan. So its normal to get quite a bit of condensation?

yeah

At this time of year when the ambient temperature is higher then there'll be less condesate.

But in the winter, there will be a lot more.

Note what season has the most condensate on the house windows.

Of course if you have a fishroom, with not heated tanks, just having the room heated, you'll have no condensate, but if you have anything in the tank that blows bubbles or similar, you'll get splashes forming LIKE a condensate.

its getting colder though. i was half frozen when i had to get up at 4 to go to work this morning!!! damn polished wooden floors!!!

warm your room to an even 26 deg & you shouldnt get condensation & you could unplug the heater too :lol:
