I think your temp profile is just about perfect. No need to get the warm side any higher. The cool side may be just a tad bit low. I like to shoot or around 80-82 for the cool side, with the warm side hanging around 86-88. You humidity (40% RH) is absolutely perfect. Contrary to some info you may run across, BPs do not need humidity any higher than that (excpet during a shed). In fact, it is far worse to keep a cage overly humid and damp. To boost humidty during shedding time, simply mist the tank a couple times a day.
