Keeping proper humidity and heat in glass enclosures.

I haven't been having too much of an issue with my temps and humidity lately but I could always learn more and improve! Current set ups for my 2 bps,
•45 gallon tanks with screen locking lids
•coco fiber and Eco earth mix of substrate
•2 hides
•water bowls
•thermostats hooked up to under tank heaters set to 92 degrees.
•small wattage heat lamp for 80 degree ambient air temp.
•thermometers and hygrometers

Sounds like you have it spot on.
Im suprised you get the Heat Lamp to get a large glass tank like that up to 80 ambient. I have a 33 long and I use a RHP because a Bulb/CHE just woulnt hold 80+ temps at ground level good enough in the winter even with 3 sides insulated and 3/4 Plexiglass lid.
