I have ventilation holes in my tubs at the top and sides. Moisture is reapplied to my tub set-ups when the condensation on the sides has reached a minimum. I do not use a gauge to measure humidity, I use what I smell, see, and feel...trust your instincts and you will be fine. Humidity is obviously sufficient as the pastel just fed and shed for me; in addition too, it is apparent that the humidity is not excessive seeing as how there are no signs of scale rot or related illnesses. You and your specimens will work it out, hope that helps.

Damp towel over the screen top is totally fine and doesn't promote mold as long as you have airflow. Not to mention to heat lamp will even it out and dry the air.
