I want to switch my T hide while it's hiding, big deal?

If you definitely think it needs to go closer I will push it closer.

If it's pushed right up against the corner there will be almost nowhere for the water to flow to except down in the very corner. Won't the humidity be less?

Just keep yours like you have it and see how it does for you. If you like the results, keep it. If not, move it.

Your main concern was the area around the dish being too wet, thus deterring the pulchra from wanting to drink from it. If the T needs water it will drink. If you wanted to keep it dry in front of the dish, refer back to my picture. Notice in that position the dark sub is behind and under the dish, not in front. If you want that as an option, then try it. It's all about trial and error.

I've raised slings of this species in the past. Some will take to a dish, some wont, some will avoid damp parts, some will flip the dish and stand over it, many will bury the dish. It's all up to which individual you get.

My other concern was humidity, and now that I don't have the water dish pressed down, if it can even get to the water?

I messed up my post, I meant that I was also concerned with it even being able to drink from the water because of how high the cap is.

The humidity will be fine. Any way you overflow the dish you are providing humidity. Add more water, it spreads further and lasts longer in the substrate.

If you are concerned about the T not being able to reach the dish, craft a downward slope and put it there. However, I do think it will be able to reach the dish as is.

How’s the adjustments going?
