Becca,
Your lids are the same design that I am using. If you are concerned your humidity is too high, drill smome more holes. I personally am going with more smaller holes, rather than fewer larger holes. The smaller holes do a better job of keeping things in/out of the enclosure.
How thick is the plxiglass you got? I originally bought 1/8 inch but am switching over to 1/4 inch. I figure the thicker plexiglass is a) stronger, so if I set anything on top of the enclosure, it won't be a problem and b) is heavier, so the T's won't be able to push it up.
Also, instead of drawing the lines on the plexiglass, I tape a piece of graph paper to the lid and use that as my drill guide.
