My viv is showing signs of low hydration. It's between 30 - 40% how can i raise it safely. I have tried shifting the water bowl towards the hot end and no great change. I am using an exo terra dial, i have ordered a new digital gauge to eliminate that.
Sabre is not bothered by it. She is still quite active and roams around as she likes.
I have checked the moss and that's damp. The water bowl is full...
Any suggestions or am i being to worried

It's a built in panel unit. I have tested it outsied, inside and it's working fine.
I have placed it mid way up the back wall of the viv. |

hmm, it's still a bit too low for my liking. I can keep spraying it but i'm guessing that's not a good enough soloution. Any hint's tips that could help regulate it a bit more? |

I got a really nice funky digi one. Was still reading low though. Did dip to 38%.
Added a bigger vent, more moss and a spray and back up to 50 ish % again |

Agreed, I don't measure the humidity in any of my vivs.
I do check when setting a RUB up though, to make sure I have drilled sufficient holes to give enough ventilation. |

As long as she's happy and shedding OK I wouldn't worry about it, normal room humidity is usually fine. |

totally agree, if you want to measure or worry about humidity at least get a digi hygrometer that will give you the right figure   |

I wouldn't change anything while you're measuring it with a dial, they're next to useless. |
