Yeah, as long as they've got a humid hide, and use it, you don't have to really worry too much about humidity. I'd suggest using either lighting or undertank heating (prefered by most keepers) for temperature. If you can keep the room temp in the low/mid-80's great but, you're still going to need about 90 on the hot side. And they need belly heat, which can be a UTH or proper sized bulb. I use bulbs and have substrate temp's of 88-92 for the hot side and 82-86 for the cool side, aswell as the proper ambient temp's. The red light is mostly for viewing at night, when they're the most active. But, as I stated, I use bulbs as my heat sourse aswell.
