hiya i'm having a condensation problem. the water collects between my pump and the glass tanks and then drips down and floods the base. i try to keep it clean but im scared it will rot my wood stand if it continues. i have taped paper towel below the pump to collect the water. i keep my water temp at 78 and it is a 120 gal tank. anyone have any ideas on how to stop this problem?
 
its my understanding that water only condenses on something that is cooler than the air around it. so in your case you have humid 95deg air temp, which im sure you dont, since you live in canada. that is strange
