Default Hermit crabs

can anyone help? We have 6 hermit crabs in a 60 x 45 x 45 exo terra terrarium . They have hermit crab sand as substrate, a couple of coco huts and a mattig tube to hide in, plus some moss stacked at the back. I am having real trouble getting heat above 21C and humidity is only about 50% despite keeping all damp and a heat ,mat on one side and a red lamp on all the time. Any ideas? They come out at night but spend all day in their huts. Is this becausethey are too cold or dry?
Help please Ive only had them 2 days.
Sue
