I'm not suggesting using a full /12 block. I was just noting that that range, like the 192.168 range, is listed as "private space"...you're fine with what you have...and the /24 that you'reusing.
Leave what you have alone...it's working, it's not violating any RFCs or presenting any routing/addressing issues...you're fine. Just modify your zone file, adding the hosts that you're using, and you'll be fine.
