How Do You Give Water to Your Sand Boas?

My son and I have a growing collection of Kenyan Sand Boas, and we've been wondering what the best method for providing water would be. Our snakes are housed in racks with slide-out tubs. Our bedding is Aspen (Sani-Chips). The snakes immediately burrow into the bedding when placed in the tub, and anything light-weight containing water is going to get spilled. I'm considering buying heavy ceramic bowls for each tub, and I've thought about using velcro to secure the bowl to the bottom of the tub. Unfortunately I think the Sani-Chips will probably prevent the velcro from working well. What works for you? Do you provide water 24/7 or do you put it in the enclosure only periodically?

Any thoughts or suggestions greatly appreciated! Thanks.

Steve
