Help! Humidity issues

[ConWolf416]

I have the almost Identical setup but with a 10 gallon tank and a ceramic heat emitter in the middle and foil covering 98% of the screen, with no moss inside. The che will do the same thing, dry it out quick. I figured that out 2 weeks ago. The minute I turned it off the humidity rises from 50 to 65%. Every couple days I would have to spray the substrate good and damp to keep it above 60%.

So I have added a second water bowl and keep the che off until I can get a radiant heat panel setup figured out with this tank. It's been 3 days with the che off, the cool side stays at 75*f, hot side 95*f, and humidity hovers around 80%. I have extra thg heat tape I was thinking of putting on top of the screen hot side to warm the air temp and not mess with the humidity.

Here is my thread to give a better understanding of what I've been through.

so your ceramic heat bulb does the same thing as my infrared? Just sucks out the humidity? Ahh then getting one of those wouldn't help me would it. Do you think a heat panel wouldn't?
