Sean:
I would recommend putting more holes around the tops of the containers for a couple of reasons. First off, the more air flow the better. That will keep the humidity and condensation down. However, I would also not wet the moss inside the hides as much, which will also keep the condensation and humidity down inside the tank. With increased air circulation the moist air should not be a problem for you anymore.
Hope it helps. I had a similar problem early in my first rack (which wasn't very good), but it was mostly becaus I had only put 1 row of flow holes. If you only have the holes in the front, back or front and back consider some on the sides as well. That way, depending on the temperature in the surround house air, as well as humidity you will have all directions covered. I'm not science major, but this situation should work very similarly to osmosis. The moist air is going to disperse into the dryer air, therefore if it can go out the sides as well as the front and back lips you have a better chance of more water escaping.
