Nice setup, but I hope the lamps aren't the only heat source you have for the snakes, and you have more then the stickon thermometer to figure out the temp of the tank.

The hot side is probably MUCH hotter then the stickon thermo is registering and may be harming the snake.. Just a FYI.

there are uth heaters on each tank, moonlight bulbs in one, and day bulbs in the other. The uth both have probes on top of the glass to monitor the temp, with hygrometer also in the tank

My guess would be foil to keep in heat and humidity....something I had read up on doing at one point.

its a plastic wrap, i used a needle and poked little holes in it, so it didn't get to hot, but yet kep humidity, still trying to think of something better to keep humidity up though
 
If you have a properly regulated UTH, there's really no need for heatlamps (unless the ambient room temp is fairly cool). Heatlamps can also dry out the viv, so just turning those off might help with humidity. To be totally honest, though, unless there are problems with shedding, corns really don't need much humidity.
