Condensation forms upon a surface because the surface temperature is below the dew-point of the moisture in the surrounding air.
You can:

Reduce the amount of moisture in the surrounding air with a dehumidifier.

Raise the temperature of the contents of the cistern.

Insulate with a sealed foam insulation to have a higher temperature cistern surface.
