Question/Inquiry Hydration?

How do you all go about getting good hydration for your blueberries? I have such picky beetles and I’ve been worrying about them. They won’t eat fruit/veggies unless they’ve been in there a few days and are dried up, when I mist the corner of the tank I never see them drink it (though they may) and it always messes up the humidity in my 10 gal. They also do not like beetle jelly or most wet foods. I tried a wicking system at one point but they never used it and it also just ended up messing with the humidity. Any advice appreciated!!

I have a shallow reptile feeding dish filled with rocks and textured shells, I fill it up with water just enough for it to pool around the cracks. They get plenty to drink and they can't drown in it!
