Karrie can't thank you enough for helping out with our (lack of UVB Timmy). He has really started to liven up in the last few days and getting more fun to watch. We are following the program you laid out and it is definitely working. Without your clear guidance, I am sure he would be a goner...

I just weighed him and he is 10 grams. We got him as a baby from store and we have had him almost 5 weeks.

I dropped the basking bulb to 75W. Attach is a top view of the tank.

I have been struggling trying to post a top view pic of the enclosure on this site. I bought the 24" Reptisum Hood T5 HO with the free 5.0 UVB bulb. The screen is on the tank in the picture. The tank is 12 inches deep, so if Timmy sits at the top of the mountain, he is about 7 inches under...

I noticed 2 things that i missed from prior posts. 1. What type of calcium are you using for him right now? Once they develop calcium issues, it can take a little bit of time. Response- We are using Zoo Med Repti-Calcium and sprinkling on food 1 x per day. Plus, I tried the Exo Terra Liquid...

So, I am going to pick up the new/used 20 gal tank. Can someone post a pic of how this tank should be set up? I am looking to get it right the first time, vs. mess up like round one. Obviously, since we got a 10 gal tank with junk starter kit for Timmy we got no clue. We can personalize it...

I just bought a 20 gal Zoo Med tank from FB Marketplace tonight and will clean and use Zoo Meds wipe-out to disinfect. I know its still small, but it can hopefully work a few months. Then I can find 40+ tank. I will also get the proper 24" Reptisun Light Fixture and 22" Bulb on Saturday. So...

The bulb states it is a T5. I can return the 14" and get the 24" Reptisun hood since it makes more sense. I don't have much invested in the current tank and start up items. Am I better off getting a 20 gal tote, so that i have better control of the Temp? I am open to the suggestions and...
