Humidity Control

[lyoto]

Does anyone have any tips for good humidity control? I have Hera in a 55 gallon aquarium with a 150 watt infared heat lamp pointed at her water bowl to try and get around 50% humidity at all times. But the hydrometer that I have usually reads 40% (it is one of the analog ones and I have heard they can be inaccurate, not sure though).

I also just made a humid hide for her out of a tupperware container and some "frog moss" that I have well hydrated. Is the humid hide enough? I know that since it's a large enclosure that they have issues with humidity control. I have taken to misting the tank every few hours to try and keep the humidity up. Any suggestions or ideas?

try soaking a towel than squeezing it so its just damp than covering about 3/4 of the top of the tank, thats what i did with my tank and i got a constant 50-60 % humidity.
