Question water dragon leakage

is it ok that my jungle mix in my water dragon tank really wet? my divider between the water and jungle mix got a leak in it and the water drains over to the jungle mix. now my water dragons lay in the puddles in the jungle mix. should i take them out and replace the jungle mix? or i can just leave it like that and add some dry dirt

I would definitely clean that up. Its ok to be wet and moist, but to have puddles and them sitting it might make it too cold in the night time hours.

There's always the danger of the soggy substrate developing anaerobic conditions. You'll end up with a bacteria laden rotten egg smelling substrate just waiting to infect your dragon with some cooties. It's not only unsightly, but a health concern.
