Karrie,

You are a God send! Thanks. I feel like I have a newborn child. Ha. Every little change in her behavior has me worried and concerned that something might be wrong.

Especially when it comes to eating. I did get her to eat a little bell pepper and drink a little water that I dropped on her.

What about her insects is she eating those? Did you replace the coil w/ what was recommended?

I don’t have a coil, got the long T5 fluorescent bulb. Is that what you mean? I have it on top. I am concerned about putting the the T5 inside and it being too close to her. Thoughts?

If your screen is fine mesh like a screen door it will need to go into the tank--- approx 12-15 inches from basking decor-- if it's a wide holed like a dime it can stay on top basking distance 8-10 inches

I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

i feel so sad reading your about me 😢
Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
