Are they trying to tell me something?

So over the weekend I noticed that my 2 furry kids have been at their water bowls, my G.Rosea is either resting against the bowl or spread out over it and my New River is resting next to or resting its leg tips in the water.....does this mean anything?  do I need worry? the house temp was at 76 degrees, inside the tanks 78.

Im using the Eco Earth shreded coco fibre, they have been in the same subtrate for the last month and up until now everything has been fine :( my G.rosea's tank Humidity is between 70-75 % and the new rivers is hard to tell, I think the gage is broken cause its only reading 50% and has never moved.

That seems a little humid for G. roseas.  I have yet to see my spiders do what you describe.  It seems to imply that they WANT more moisture, but those species freak out if the substrate is too moist, so.. ???

yea no kidding huh, I only do a very light spay once a week  on the side where the water bowl is, maybe I should so twice a week, its just really weird especiall with the G.Rosea leterally standing across the top of the bowl.

I still have all those irrational fears being new to T's and all, I feel like an over protective parent.
