from the pics i've seen of your leo and his housing, it looks like your going for the natural look, and to me it looks great! mines a bit more basic than your's i have to admit. half a coconut which is his normal hide, a tub of mealworms, a small log (which he never climbs anyways) 2 bottle caps (1 at either end) filled with calcium, and a plastic tub i get my crix in as a humid hide. what i do is put about 10 layers all around the hide so it keeps the moisture in, and yes it has a bottom so i guess your's will be losing a lot of moisture from not having a bottom to it. you could always make a bottom for it, just a plain sheet of plastic that fits the outline of the hide as good as you can, that should keep alot of moisture in. if not, either buy a commerically made one, or go less natural. you could always PVA and sand your own plastic ihde, my bro made his whole set up for his beardy, and man it looks so damn sweet. i'll get pics when im next at his house for you all ^^
