Hey Zach,
my recommendation is keeping mountain kings (both pyro and zonata) in a lower ambient temperature (such as room temperature or slightly above) with a warm spot (provided either under or over) at about 90F along with a moist hide (moist, not wet or damp) as well. Higher temps, for zonata, have been correlated with possible etiology of zonata disease. Sounds like you have a good starting temp zach, and work around that now. Best wishes. 
Also, if you can, provide mtn kings with a tight layered hide as pictured below. It goes a long way. Best wishes.... 

for hatchlings......

for adults......
