I have my ball pythons in a 55 gallon tank with a screen lid. I had the same problem and was told to cover all but about 1/4 off the screen with foil tape. It worked wonders. I also found that since I turned off the heat lamp it doesn't dry out as fast. Hope that helps!

When i had my 55 i simply covered half with a towel when the humidity would not hold. Worked great for me
