Butterwort and Nepenthes Leaves Rotting?

Hello!

I have recently started growing a Nepenthes and Butterwort in a terrarium (Chopped moss mix, plenty of charcoal, plenty of peanuts and charcoal at the bottom). I always leave the lid quite a bit ajar for air circulation.

The new leaves are beautiful, perfect, but it seems as they touch the sphagnum moss mat (that they are growing on top of) the leaves are rotting (see attached link for images):

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!
Jeff
