Is a reptarium a screen enclosure? There are a few tricks to keeping the humidity high. Wet towels, wet moss, and saran wrap can work.

That is one of the main drawbacks to the reptariums. The mesh makes it almost impossible to keep warm and get the humidity right. Also if you have the UVB light outside the mesh it is screening out most of the needed UVB.
The ideas that Chytrid Fungus mentioned are good. You could also try wrapping a plastic shower curtain around the enclosure to contain the humidity.
The flourescent is a UVB light isn't it?
