    Do you have a bulb or any overhead lighting?

    How long does the moss last before it goes bad?

    It depends on how warm it is in the tank. I misted my tank and moss once or twice daily and the towel once a day. So since you have no over head lighting, leave about a two inch gap open both ends of the screen. That will allow the air to circulate

    As simple as that, a wet towel (i guess not dripping wet) plus some moss, i will keep this in mind, thank you

    No problem. Honestly, there would be days where I wouldn't even keep the towel damp and humidity still stayed around 55%
