What does ri have to do with it? Raising the temperatures helps to raise a snakes immune system to help fight of ri's, and contrary to popular belief raising humidity actual helps snakes with ri's as it thins out the mucas, which allows the snake to breathe easier. So aslong as the temperature in the tub was warm enough for the night, and then the viv she went into was warm and humid, like their natural habitat anyway, there will be no issues with the ri.

Since your snake doesn't have 4 stubborn dried up layers of skin, a soak just over night would be fine to ease the skin off.
