wooden vivs are fine so long as they have been sealed, doesnt sound like yours has so is warping due to the humidity.

Would either look at sealing the viv now but once water has gotten into the woodwork its pretty much useless. Either look into a new tank or plastic RUB.

I agree with our fearless moderator, plastic is the way to go.

However, before we make any assumptions, a question: are the bumps the wood material itself, or is something growing there?
