Humidity Acceptability?

For my tank (36x18x18), i hooked up a homemade humidifier, i have plexiglass on the top and towels over that. During the day, my humidity drops to about 45%, but at night, it goes up to about 55%.

Would this be considered acceptable or should I find some way to raise it more? Although im not really sure how without having to spray daily. Im avoiding having to spray daily because im sure there will be times where I leave on vacation.

How are you measuring the humidity? The dial gauges are crap, digital ones are much more accurate. For reference, I keep my humidity for my BPs at 60-70%. I'd say anything below 55% is too low.

Your humidity is fine :gj:

It's a bit low during the day - I prefer to keep mine above 60%. I wouldn't recommend spraying as a solution, but if you can't fine an alternate solution it might be a good idea to add in a humid hide lined with lightly damp sphagnum moss that the snake can use if need be.
