Need some input!

Hello and thanks in advance.
I am wondering if there are sponges that would be safe to put into my dumpy frog enclosure. I of course know that the packaged yellow kitchen sponges are out of the question because they already have soap in them.

My situation is this:
12x12x18 zoo med terrarium has small river rocks in the bottom with a soft mesh over the top with water in the bottom.
Problem is that I got a fogger and the condensation is filling the tank up to the point of overflowing. I'm looking for an easy way to soak up the water so I don't have to worry about it overflowing while im at work and so I don't have to tote water out of it every other day.

Any ideas?

Do you really need the fog system? Sounds like it's putting more water than necessary into your tank. You could just mist the tank every morning to keep the humidity level correct and not have to worry about it overflowing at all. Are you using a hygrometer to gauge the humidity level?

Don't keep white's tree frogs like this. They are better in dry set ups, you're set up is more for dart frogs. I never mist mine, they get all the moisture they need from their nightly soaks in the water bowl. Too much humidity just ends up causing health problems such as bacterial infections.

I was just trying to find the most convenient way to work out the moisture situation for them.... that's all..


I put the fogger on the lowest setting and on a timer so its only on for a short time each day. They love the fog, they will all sit in a pile right under the fog hose. Seems to be working great so far.
