Do you have a thermometer with a probe? If so, let it sit on his basking spot for about 30 min to see what the temps are. If it gets over 110, then its to hot,imo.
Yes I have the thermomoter from walmart with the probe Its droping its at like 114 now I may have to move it further away or drop the watt of my light bulb THANX FOR YOUR HELP Midmichicer
I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
