That seems to be too much humidity and not enough ventilation. You do not need the tank to be that wet at all. My scorpions have been doing fine without any condensation. You don't need a cover for the top either, all it does is restrict airflow for no purpose whatsoever and may even give way to mold growth. That level of humidity may do an asian forest scorpion well, but is not required for emps.
