    How to make a glass type tank work with humidity?

    Is anyone having definitive humidity success with an exo-terra type terrarium?


    I'm struggling with mine and it's driving me crazy lol


    My poor little fella had a so so shed (2-3 large pieces then a few small pieces) about 10 days ago and still has a lingering piece on back of neck and is a little head shy so I can't quite get it off.


    Here is my setup:


    * Ecoearth as substrate


    * Ultratherm UTH with thermostat for hot side


    * CHE (black light) with lutron dimmer for cool side.


    * Aluminum foil on top


    Hot / warm side stays at 90/80. Humidity is 45'ish constantly. If I mist the tank down, it'll go up to 70 for an hour then start dropping.


    I recently added sphagnum moss in a bowl and also on top of hot-side log hide, then misted, then watched the humidity. Same thing. Went up for 60-75 min then started dropping.


    Is anyone having success with a glass type tank like mine and if so what are they doing different. I would think results would be easily replicated if the setup mimics another right?
