- Change a different type of substrate ie. saw dust , wood chip , paper pellets

- Avoid water dish inside enclosure

- Use a bigger enclosure

- Use a dehumifier to decrease humidity

- Use a bigger wattage basking light ie. 120 W ,150 W or more ( place it higher or else temp will rise too high )

How high is the said humidity ? by the look at your setting - Paper pellets , basking light ..etc

Your enclosure's humidity wont get over 60 % I think , even on rainy days unless your tank is placed near an opened window ( cool air coming in ) !!

Yup, mine. How to make it clean ? Just put a Powerhead Top Filter is enough to make it clean. About the water level, the pic was taken when i relocated him that day. The water in his tank is 4x his height. Hope that clears your doubt.

Never tried because my humidity level wont go past 60% mark.

They are not accurate so better if you use a digital hygrometer. Some analog hygrometer might work but some might not.
