He's currently shedding right now, and does have stress marks. I was told his lack of appetite and basking has to do with him shedding (maybe). Would a 100w house bulb be sufficient for a 20 gallon long tank?

A 100 watt should be enough for the basking spot but youll have to checktemps on the cool side to see if tthey're warm enough. If not we can tackle that with another lower wattage bulb. What are you using to take temps?

Don't get the reptisun 10.0 HO t5 or whatever it is. It uses a t5 fixture instead of a t8 fixture. If money is a problem I would buy the Reptisun 10.0 from Petco or whatever and order one from Amazon. When the Amazon one comes in return the Petco one.
