Maybe I'm looking at the pictures wrong, but to me it looks like you have your two identical hides (the two flower pots) both on the cool side of the tank, with all those water bowls on the hot side. The reason it is recommended to have identical hides is so the snake doesn't choose the favorite hide over thermoregulation. You should really have identical hides on both sides of the tank. As it is now, it doesn't look (to me anyway) like your bp has a place to hide on the warm side of the tank...
But, to answer the question you're really asking, if you switch to tubs, the ones that lock on both ends are usually sufficient. If you want to be extra cautious, put something semi-heavy on top of the lid and you'll be fine, or wrap a bungee cord around the middle of the tub...

The pots are not hides, just to make cluter. She has a rock cave a cork bark. She uses both, her fav is the behind the water bowl.
Right now with the aspen the humidity is 60% and the temps are 90/81. I did have to mist. Maybe if I just do that once a day.
